Dr. Michael Ramirez (PhD in sociology from the University of Georgia) teaches and conducts research in the areas of work, inequalities, and the life course. He has researched career pathways in the cultural production of music, constructions of masculinities in men’s movements, and Wikipedia as a space to decolonize the classroom. He is currently working on his second book project which examines how ethnicity, social class, and the workplace influence men’s practices of fatherhood. Over the course of his career, he has developed a strong commitment to mentorship and advocacy for students and faculty alike.
