Marginalization, Entrepreneurship, Innovation, Text Analysis
I am a fifth-year doctoral candidate in the Management Department at Florida State University. My dissertation explores how entrepreneurs navigate legitimacy trade-offs in pursuing social movement market opportunities, and the impact of entrepreneur attributes on their strategic meaning-making activities.
More broadly, I study the power of perceptions in entrepreneurial and organizational contexts with a particular interest in the influence of inequality regimes (e.g., gender, race, and class). As such, I often examine how innovative activities and actors are perceived and the impact of these perceptions. I frequently utilize computer-aided text analysis and machine-learning methods to examine the development and transformation of attitudes, perceptions, and schemas in large qualitative datasets. My research joins conversations in the areas of cultural entrepreneurship, behavioral strategy, social inequality, and institutional entrepreneurship.
