I am an Assistant Professor of Political Science at the University of Houston. I am a Visiting Professor at Harvard University (2024-2025) and will be a Visiting Research Fellow at University of Pennsylvania (2025-2026). I am additionally a faculty affiliate of the Political Psychology Research Group (PPRG) at Stanford University, the Center for American Political Studies (CAPS) at Harvard University, and the Institute for Quantitative Social Science at Harvard University. My Ph.D. in political science is from Duke University, where I was also a member of Scott Huettel's neuroscience laboratory in Duke's Psychology and Neuroscience department.

I am a quantitative methodologist specializing in causal inference and experimental methods. My work uses eye tracking to obtain direct measures of decision processes, information accrual, and attention. Substantively, I study questions of voter behavior, with an emphasis on affective polarization.
