Welcome! I am a PhD candidate in Political Science at Yale University, specializing in American Politics. Starting in fall 2026, I will be a Postdoctoral Fellow at the SNF Agora Institute at Johns Hopkins University.

My research examines questions around representation, public opinion, persuasion, and gender, with a current focus on abortion policy in the post-Roe v. Wade era. My dissertation and ongoing projects address three interrelated questions:

  1. Do Americans have meaningful preferences on abortion—an essential condition for democratic representation?
  2. To what extent does post-Roe abortion policy align with public preferences, and when and why does it diverge? 
  3. Can life events or external forces change those preferences?

My work has been published or is forthcoming in the American Journal of Political Science, Political Behavior, and American Politics Research. Prior to attending Yale, I worked at the Boston Consulting Group (BCG) and earned my B.A. in Political Science and Spanish from the University of Pennsylvania.
