Hello! I’m a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Government at Harvard University and a James M. and Cathleen D. Stone Ph.D. Scholar in Inequality and Wealth Concentration at the Harvard Kennedy School. I am an affiliate of the Institute for Quantitative Social Science and the Center for American Political Studies. I am on the job market this academic year.

My research agenda seeks to understand how political institutions structure the behavior of racial minorities and members of marginalized communities in American politics. This includes studying the role of election administration, legislative organizations, and policy design. My work embodies a mixed-method approach, employing techniques for causal inference, interviews, and formal theory. My scholarship is published or is conditionally accepted at the American Political Science Review, Political Behavior, the Journal of Public Economic Theory, and has been featured in major media outlets including FiveThirtyEight / ABC News.

Before coming to Harvard, I received my A.B. in Economics and Mathematics from Bryn Mawr College and studied at the London School of Economics and Political Science.
