My work is driven by a desire to understand how K-12 policies and institutional and organizational conditions in education shape equitable educational opportunities for racially/ethnically minoritized and persistently underserved students. I focus on three primary areas: (1) implementation of equity-focused instructional policies, with attention to district, school, and teacher sensemaking; (2) district-level equity leadership; and (3) the political dimensions of the policy process, including voice and representation in policymaking spaces. Across these areas, I draw on theoretical lenses from organizational sociology, political science, and public policy and use a variety of methodological approaches, including qualitative interviews and observations, survey methods, network analysis, and descriptive quantitative methods.Â
Previously, I worked as a researcher at SRI International's Center for Education Policy, where I led and contributed to studies of teaching policies and professional learning initiatives, and as a curriculum developer and professional learning facilitator at the University of California, Berkeley's Lawrence Hall of Science. I started my career in education as an elementary math and science teacher in Jonestown, Mississippi.
