Arianna J. King holds a Ph.D. in Urban Studies (2023) from Tulane University’s City, Culture, and Community Program. Prior to doctoral study, she earned a B.A. in Philosophy and Fine Arts (2006) from Brandeis University in Waltham, Massachusetts, and an M.S. in Urban Studies (2015) from the University of New Orleans with a focus in Urban Planning & Urban Anthropology.
Dr. King is committed to the use of interdisciplinary approaches that combine sociological, geographical, and anthropological theories and methods to explore our global urban world and the everyday practices of ordinary people in cities. Her teaching philosophy is grounded in people-centered research that helps students better understand the intersections between urban studies, gender studies, market trading, urban planning policy, and public space. Arianna is currently working on a book manuscript titled, Everyday Architects of Cape Coast: Vernacular Placemaking and Urban Becoming.
