I am a presidency scholar who focuses on rhetoric. My first book looks at the locations of presidential speeches. In other words, do location choices help better inform us about priorities and decisions of administrations? I have published 3 books. My first book, Why Presidential Speech Locations Matter: Analyzing Speechmaking from Truman to Obama (2018), examines the impact and importance of where presidents choose to speak. My 2020 book, Donald Trump and the Kayfabe Presidency: Professional Wrestling Rhetoric in the White House, examines how Donald Trump uses professional wrestling language in the presidency to help sway the public. He uses wrestling tactics to craft manufactured realities that emphasize his worldview. My 2024 book is Eugenics in American Political Life: How the Politics of Superiority Still Shape Us Today.
