About Me

I am an associate professor of Sport & Fitness Administration in the department of Health and Human Performance at University of Houston. Before I joined UH in 2014, I spent six years teaching at a division III and a division I school in the area of sport management.

My research interests generally fall into sport consumer behaviors particularly in the areas including game attendance, team merchandise purchasing, and media sports consumption. In addition, I work on measurement in sports behaviors and branding.
