Welcome! I am a graduate student at NYU researching American political geography and local governance. I am also substantively interested in campaign finance, historical political economy, Bayesian methods, and clever ways to not cry while cleaning data. 


I was a 2024 Parke Fellow at the Brennan Center for Justice; my focus was on redistricting and voting behavior for their Democracy Program.
