I am a first-year Ph.D. student in Political Science at the University of Virginia, specializing in American Politics and Political Methodology. My research examines American reproductive health policy, state-level policy diffusion, federal and state health insurance regulation, ballot measures on abortion, and gender politics and representation.

My work bridges academic research and public policy, with publications and datasets addressing the political, legal, and demographic dimensions of reproductive rights in the United States. I have presented my findings at multiple academic conferences and contributed to the Institute for Public Policy and Social Research’s Policy Wonk Blog.

Beyond academia, I have organized initiatives with Planned Parenthood and the National Organization for Women to safeguard abortion and contraceptive access nationwide. My commitment to evidence-based policy and gender equity continues to guide both my research and advocacy.
