Current & Past Supervision

​

Kelsey is interested in supervising students in the areas of agricultural, food and culinary tourism, non-commercial hospitality, battlefield tourism, scuba diving tourism, and volunteer tourism. Kelsey is also interested in serving on supervisory committees where she can contribute to the methodological development of a student's thesis in the areas of qualitative methods (qualitative content analysis, discourse analysis, ethnographic interviews, oral history and personal narrative interviews, participant observation, (auto)ethnography, immersive fieldwork, focus groups, and photo-elicitation) or the use of grounded theory, phenomenology-based ethnography, emergent theme analysis or narrative discourse analysis.
