Hi! I am a 2nd year Ph.D. student in Public Policy at Harvard Kennedy School of Government. My research centers on the empirical evaluation of AI systems used in educational and institutional decision-making contexts, with a focus on learning outcomes and access to opportunity. My current work includes evaluations of AI augmented learning and applications of machine learning to university admissions. Before beginning my Ph.D., I earned my bachelor's degree at Washington University in St. Louis and worked as a research assistant at the Federal Reserve.
