Welcome! I'm a postdoctoral fellow and applied policy analyst based at William & Mary's Global Research Institute. I received my Ph.D. in Political Science from Indiana University Bloomington in 2025.

My work focuses on evaluating public policies and their political, social, and economic outcomes using quantitative and qualitative approaches. To study these questions, I use a range of methods, including longitudinal analysis, causal inference techniques, spatial modeling, and forecasting. Across all of my projects, I specialize in building large, complex datasets, conducting technical analyses, and translating findings for academic, policy, and public audiences.

Substantively, my research has examined economic sanctions policies as well as issues related to governance, the distribution of public goods and services, and political violence using observational and geospatial datasets. My work appears in policy-relevant journals including International Studies Quarterly, Foreign Policy Analysis, and World Development, where it contributes to broader discussions surrounding public policy and empirically informed decision-making.

In addition to my academic and applied research experience, I have served as an AmeriCorps volunteer and taught in China, Singapore, Japan, and Taiwan. I currently reside in Williamsburg, Virginia.
