Hello and welcome to my website! I am a PhD candidate in Sociology at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. My work examines the emerging trend of expansive state commitments to healthcare in the developing world, grounded in a comparison of Thailand, Brazil, and South Africa. I am a past recipient of the Fulbright-Hays Doctoral Dissertation Fellowship and the Henry Luce Scholarship. I hold a Master's in Public Affairs from the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs at Princeton University and a Bachelor's degree in Sociology and English from Tulane University.
My research interests include political sociology, globalization, development and social change, medical sociology, social policy, citizenship, HIV/AIDS, human rights, and research methods. I am on the job market and am looking for an academic job in these areas.
