Biography
David's teaching and research interests lie at the intersection of work and organizations, health, gender, sexuality, culture, and economic sociology. His work to date pursues two broad questions 1.) How do organizations make decisions when their economic interests contradict their worker’s shared cultural values? and 2.) How do workers navigate different types of precarious employment? David's recent work uses qualitative and quantitative methods to investigate these questions in the context of sex workers working in the the California adult film industry.
