Hi there,

Thanks for stopping by! I am a fifth year Ph.D. candidate in Public Policy at the Harvard Kennedy School of Government and a Stone Ph.D. Scholar in Inequality and Wealth Concentration. I am also a researcher at the Computational Policy Lab.

I develop and apply computational methods to evaluate and build AI systems that improve organizational decisions, services, and public policy. My research sits at the intersection of data science, engineering, and social science. I work across a variety of domains, including lending, health care, criminal justice, and education.

Before beginning my Ph.D., I studied computer science (M.S.), management science and engineering (B.S.), and English literature (minor) at Stanford.

I am on the academic job market for 2026-2027.
