Areas of Interest: 
Demography,
Race and Ethnicity,
Stratification
 
My primary research interests fall under the broad heading of racial and ethnic stratification. I have worked on such diverse topics as minority aging and racial and ethnic disparities in pathways to retirement; inequality in wealth accumulation; the impact of neighborhood racial composition on differential rates of housing appreciation across groups; and the impact of neighborhood succession on community social organization. More recently, my work has centered on Hispanic migrants to Durham, NC, and their process of adaptation to the U.S., including the impact of migration on gender roles and health behaviors. The common theme uniting these endeavors, which combine both quantitative and qualitative methodologies, is an interest in how structural conditions affect minorities’ life chances throughout the life-course.
