​Welcome!
 
I am an Assistant Professor of Political Science at the University of Kansas. I received my Ph.D. from the University of Pittsburgh in 2019.

My research focuses on political behavior in Latin America, examining how political attitudes and institutions interact to shape representation and democratic accountability. My current work examines the relationship between public opinion on corruption and crime and the policy and elite strategies for addressing these issues.

​My research has been published or is forthcoming in Electoral Studies, Politics and Gender, and Latin American Politics and Society, among others.
