Until recently, I was a the Howard R. Marsh Postdoctoral Teaching Fellow in the Department of Communication and Media at University of Michigan. Due to funding changes, that position was eliminated, and I now hold a lecturer position in the same department. I have also previously held a postdoctoral fellowship at University of Pennsylvania. I received my Ph.D. in Communication from the University of Michigan in 2023.
I study political communication, political psychology, and public opinion, focusing on how people encounter, process, and act on political information. In my work, I explore how media and communication relate to polarization, democracy, political learning, and social identity. My other research examines survey measurement and psychophysiology. My work has been published in Political Communication, Communication Theory, International Journal of Public Opinion Research, and Politics and the Life Sciences.
