Assistant Professor of
Political Science

University of California, Berkeley

I am an Assistant Professor of Political Science at the University of California, Berkeley. My research sits at the intersection of the social sciences and statistics. My mission is to create a body of research that bridges these two worlds — with an emphasis on answering causal questions — within which experts from both worlds can have dialogue with one another and foster beneficial collaborations.

Research

My research sits primarily in the field of causal inference and survey design and analysis. My main research agendas focus on external validity of experiments, falsification testing, and survey weighting.
