I am a second-year doctoral student in Political Science and Public Policy at the University of Michigan. My research leverages computational methods to investigate human rights and institutional accountability, with a primary focus on the United States.

My current substantive interests include:

• Protest and Protest Policing: Analyzing transnational protest dynamics and policing tactics.

• Oversight and Reform: Examining organizational drivers of misconduct within the North American criminal justice system.

• Conflict Documentation: Collaborating with the Human Rights Data Analysis Group to document causes of death in Middle Eastern conflict settings.

• American Political Development: Researching the causal properties of diffusion and the socio-economic impacts of Reconstruction-era policies.

Methodologically, I specialize in high-dimensional and unstructured data. My current projects make use of natural language processing, multimodal language models, computer vision, record linkage, and time-series analysis.

At Michigan, I am advised by Christian Davenport, Vince Hutchings, and Don Moynihan.

Prior to my studies at Michigan, I worked as a policy analyst at the UNC School of Government. I hold a Bachelor of Science in computer science, with a second major in political science, from UNC-Chapel Hill.
