I am a postdoctoral fellow at New York University’s Center for Social Media and Politics. In Fall 2024, I will be joining American University’s Department of Computer Science as an Assistant Professor.
I develop applied AI and computational social science methods that extract social and political insights from unstructured data. These methods address research questions about political elite and non-elite ideology, affective polarization, and hateful and abusive speech and memes. Some recent papers along these research interests include measuring ideology and text scoring. I received my PhD in Political Science and Scientific Computing and MA in Statistics at the University of Michigan.
