"My interests cross many of geography's subfields but have tended to coalesce around questions of power as they relate to the spatiality of sexuality, gender and class. I have explored links in the U.S., U.K., and Australia between urban land, housing and labor markets, regional economic change and the construction of place based gay identities, communities and political movements. I have also studied the cultural transformation and conflicts associated with these processes, such as the spatiality of media representations of gay men and the relationships between sexuality and nation-building projects. More recently, I have written about the theoretical connections between feminist and "queer" geography as well as the theory, politics and practice of mapping queer populations and cultures. The mapping project is an ongoing collaboration with Professor Michael Brown of the University of Washington and a community-based GLBT history organization in Seattle, Washington. Finally, I have a long-standing interest in U.S. electoral geography, which has led to separate collaborations with Professor Brown and University of Washington Professor Emeritus of Geography Richard Morrill."
