Biography
Vincent is a PhD student in Criminal Justice at Michigan State University. He received his B.A. from The Ohio State University and M.S. in Criminal Justice from the School.
Vincent’s research looks at migration, sexuality, and crime. Specifically, he is interested in the experiences of sexual and gender minorities in the Global South, as well as how intersectional identities influence people’s attitudes toward crime and justice. Current projects he is working on explore: 1) video voyeurism (toupai) in China; 2) institutional trust and migration decisions; and 3) predictors of bullying victimization.
Outside school, he is also actively involved in professional organizations, namely the American Sociological Association’s Student Forum Advisory Board (SFAB) and the American Society of Criminology’s Division of Queer Criminology (DQC).
