Full Professor
Jun 2021 — Present · New Paltz, NY, US
I am a professor of anthropology at the State University of New York at New Paltz. I am the author of Cynical Citizenship: Gender, Regionalism and Political Subjectivity in Porto Alegre, Brazil (2018) and co-editor of Lived Religion and Lived Citizenship and the in-press Precarious Democracy: Ethnographies of Hope, Despair and Resistance in Brazil. His research focuses on class mobility, political attitudes, gender, sexuality, health, and religion. I recently co-directed a three-year investigation of political subjectivities among the demographic sector once known as Brazil’s “new middle class,” focusing on perceptions of the 2013-18 crisis, cultural memory of authoritarian pasts, and the rise of popular conservativism.
