Bio
Hello world! I am a Collegiate Assistant Professor at the University of Chicago, where I teach Global Society in the College Core. Trained as a quantitative social scientist, I do interdisciplinary research on demography and population health.
Before joining the University of Chicago, I was a postdoctoral scholar at the Center for Economic History at Northwestern University. I have a PhD in Sustainable Development from Columbia University.
Off campus, you’re most likely to find me wilderness canoeing, enjoying the Chicago lake shore, or reading sci-fi and fantasy (current recommendation).
