I specialize in political communication, the presidency, civic engagement, media and politics, and
political behavior. My
research
includes presidential influence as well as young adult political participation and civic engagement.
I co-authored the books The Political Voices of Generation Z and Web 2.0 and the Political Mobilization of College Students and co-edited American Political Parties Under Pressure: Strategic Adaptations for a Changing Electorate.
The Political Voices of Generation Z was named a 2023 Choice Outstanding Academic Title.
