Hello! I am a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Politics at Princeton University, where I am affiliated with the Center for the Study of Democratic Politics, the Data-Driven Social Science Initiative, and the Program for Quantitative and Analytical Political Science.
I work on questions in interest group and bureaucratic politics, political economy, and American political institutions, using computational methods that involve text analysis and large language models, with an empirical focus on environmental policymaking.
