I am a Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Oxford. I completed my Ph.D. in Demography and M.A. in Biostatistics at UC Berkeley. I will join the Sociology Department at the University of Texas at Austin as an Assistant Professor in Fall 2025.
My research develops and applies computational and demographic methods to examine questions in population health. In one line of research, I investigate mortality disparities and dynamics in the United States using large-scale administrative data. In a second line of research, I develop and apply network-based methods to sample hard-to-reach populations and estimate mortality rates.
My work has been published in Demography, Population and Development Review, Demographic Research, and Population Research and Policy Review, among other outlets.
