I am an assistant professor in the Department of Political Studies at Queen’s University. I was previously a postdoctoral fellow at Vanderbilt University’s Latin American Public Opinion Project (LAPOP) Lab. I received my Ph.D. in Political Science from Pennsylvania State University.
My research agenda addresses the politics of immigration in a non-Western context, with a particular focus on public opinion and the political economy of migration. I study the determinants of migration-related preferences and attitudes as well as how socio-economic inequality is intertwined with migration decisions and behaviors, with a regional focus on Asia and the Americas. Methodologically, I employ different types of experiments and causal inference methods for observational data. My work has been published in outlets such as Journal of Politics and Environmental Research Letters.
