I presented a paper and helped to organize a panel with Alayne Unterberger and Martha Rees titled, “Arizonafication of the South: New Laws and Old Divisions across AL, GA, FL and MS.” My individual paper was titled, “Who Will Pick Georgia’s Vidalia Onions? Impacts of Georgia’s Immigration Law.” My co-author on the paper was Angel Bowers, my graduate assistant and current MPH Community Health student. A manuscript based on this paper is under review for publication in an applied anthropology journal.

Moreover, I attended a full-day workshop on Digital Storytelling with Marty Otanez and Aline Gubrium which featured innovative research methods.  One of the examples I brought to my health communication class was to show them some examples of digital storytelling videos as part of interventions which are being funded by the National Institutes of Health.
