1) Cultural and historical geography focusing on American and European landscape history; 2) Geographic information science and related computer, internet, and web technologies, particularly multimedia cartography; and 3) Geography in higher education, including instructional technologies, professional development for early career faculty, and leadership training. I have a number of major book and research projects underway. The book projects are: 1) Space, Place and Story: Toward a Spatial Theory of Narrative (in revision); 2) Contested Places, Contested Pasts: Public Memory and Commemoration in Contemporary Hungary (under contract); 3) Memorialization of U.S. School and University Tragedies: Spaces of Mourning and Remembrance; 4) Narrative Cartography. I also will be working on developing funding projects relating to my work on geography in higher education.
