Hello there,

My name is Chris. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and an Assistant Professor at the University of Georgia’s School of Social Work.

Thanks for coming here! At the moment this isn’t much of a website, but I wanted to lock down the URL and have a place where I can post my work as it grows. Or if it grows. If you are a future or current student trying to figure out who I am: hello! This is me. I’m a nice person. If you are an old friend googling me to see where I am: hello! Here I am. I’m alive! Ok, more on me below:

As stated above, I’m a professor at UGA’s SSW. I really enjoy teaching. I’m also a mental health practitioner and researcher. In terms of clinical practice, my LCSW was just successfully transferred from Missouri to Georgia. I’m also figuring out how to transfer my BACS so I can recommence clinical supervision. In terms of research, I’m currently looking into farmer mental health in Georgia and am using the voices of farmers to make needed changes. Professionally and clinically, I do many other things, but I’ll figure out how to write more about them later.

I’m always open for a conversation. Below you’ll find my work email. There is also a copy of my latest CV down there, and I update it periodically. If there are any typos in this document, please let me know!
