I am a postdoctoral fellow at the Nelson A. Rockefeller Center for Public Policy and the Social Sciences at Dartmouth College. I earned my Ph.D. in Political Science at the University of Michigan. I was a Next Generation scholar at the Institute for Social Research at the University of Michigan (Link to ISR's news release on my research).
My research focuses on:
1) What tactics do media and civil society organizations use to build public trust in evidence-based sources, such as fact-checking?
2) Do shared experiences, such as corruption and natural disasters, facilitate common ground in politics?
3) How does social science research use careful measurement and inferences to answer these important questions?
My methodological expertise lies in designing and conducting surveys and experiments, and using latent variable models to measure psychological tendencies.
My research has been supported by the Gerald R. Ford Fellowship, the Garth Taylor Dissertation Fellowship in Public Opinion, and the Converse-Miller Fellowship in American Political Behavior, among others.
