I am a Ph.D. candidate in Sociology at Duke University.

The main goal of my research is to understand the organization of cultural beliefs and preferences—how they form, how they cohere, and how we can study them. I use observational data and quasi-experimental designs to identify the role of politics in cultural change and social stratification.

These days I study generational imprinting after BLM and the effects of political ideology on occupational aspirations.
