...........................................

I am an applied sociologist at the AAMC, where I use my expertise in qualitative and quantitative research methods to answer questions about the biomedical research workforce, including tracking the impact of research funding disruptions on science & investigating how institutions and policymakers can better support thriving, diverse researchers at every stage of their careers. 

I earned my PhD in Sociology from UNC Chapel Hill, where I studied medical education, physician careers and well-being, and population health. Prior to obtaining my PhD, I was a research assistant at the Guttmacher Institute, where I worked on reproductive health research projects.
