My research aims to empower people to achieve their fullest potential in a sustainable manner while embracing and celebrating their social identities. My research is positioned at the intersection of corporate social advocacy, critical public relations, corporate social responsibility/sustainability, and culture.
My current research focuses on situations where brand and corporate activism, environmental conservation, and socioeconomic development collide with intersectional social justice issues such as gender, race, ethnicity, class, sexuality, ability, citizenship, and other axes of inequality and oppression.
My doctoral dissertation is a postmodern analysis of Chief Executive Officer (CEO) activism within the non-Western socioeconomic context of Ghana. I have authored publications on communication, public relations, sales, and marketing communications.
I have presented various research projects at major international communication conferences, and published in reputable communication journals.
