Experience
My tenure home is in the College of Business and my scholarship focuses on sustainable practices in tourism, tourism planning strategies, and host community adjustments to tourism development. My research interest in these topics spans a number of years in a variety of capacities including program management, teaching, research, and publication in leading tourism journals. I have also served as Principle Investigator on numerous research efforts including a Tourism Impacts and Second Home Development Sea Grant project and multi-year research initiative on state and local policies regarding community-based casino gambling funded through the Rural Economic Policy Program of The Aspen Institute. I serve on the Editorial Boards of the Journal of Sustainable Tourism and the InterAmerica Journal of the Environment and Tourism and have a number of research and technical publications on tourism impacts, planning, and policy. These include a monograph on gambling titled Win, Lose, or Draw?: Gambling with America's Small Towns and a co-edited book titled Seeing and Being Seen: Tourism in the American West. I have served as Guest Editor of a special issue on gambling and tourism for the Journal of Travel Research and have made numerous national and international presentations regarding general rural tourism policy as well as gambling tourism and sustainable tourism. In 1996, my co-authored article received the Travel and Tourism Research Association's Best Article Award.
