I am an Assistant Research Professor with the Social Science Research Institute and Evidence-to-Impact Collaborative at Penn State. I will join The School of Public Policy at Georgia Tech as an Assistant Professor in January 2025.
Currently, I am working on questions focusing on how family structure impacts children's long-run outcomes and on critical issues in child welfare systems.
