[email protected] Formal Education: Doctor of Philosophy: The Ohio State University Columbus, OH Concentration: Sport Management Spring 2005 Cognate: History Master of Education: University of Louisville Louisville, KY Concentration: Sport Administration Spring 2001 Bachelor of Science: The Pennsylvania State University University Park, PA Concentration: Exercise and Sport Science Fall 1998 Minor: Health Education Research/Scholarship Interests: My research interests embrace the use of historical methods to review the management history associated with organizations, individuals, and sport facilities to help highlight the contribution of history within contemporary management settings. Also acting as an advocate for the ‘historic turn’ (i.e., that history can help revise and/or create theory) within management, my work involving facilities primarily reviews innovation and modernization and does so through an interest to better understand the construction and preservation history of sport venues as a commercial attraction. With a special emphasis on the intercollegiate and professional sport contexts in the United States, my work has also looked at tax laws, building codes, leases, and the management of postseason mega events.
