Hi there, thanks for stopping by! My name is Carolina, but everyone calls me Carrie. I am the Andrew W. Mellon Postdoctoral Fellow at Wesleyan University’s Center for the Humanities. I recently received my PhD in Sociology from Princeton University where I was also affiliated with the Kahneman-Treisman Center for Behavioral Science and Public Policy.

My research leverages qualitative and experimental methods to examine the intersections of gender, sexuality, organizations, religion, and power. My work is published in the American Sociological Review, Journal of the American Academy of Religion, and Journal of College and Character. Learn more about my research here.

While at Princeton, I served for five years as a voting member of the University’s Institutional Review Board (IRB). I am passionate about teaching, advising, and mentoring, and I see my IRB service as an extension of these priorities. You can learn more about my teaching philosophy and experience here.

I hold a B.A. in Sociology and Poverty Studies from Furman University and an M.A. in Sociology from Princeton University.

Prior to graduate school, I served as the Multifaith Coordinator for Elon University’s Truitt Center for Religious and Spiritual Life. Before that, I was the Research and Policy Associate at the Community Development Project of NYC’s Urban Justice Center. And before that, I worked at your friendly neighborhood Trader Joe’s.

When I’m not teaching or writing, you can find me mountain biking, running, giving out propagations from my jungle of houseplants, or in pursuit of a coconut flavored sweet treat.
