I’m an Assistant Professor in the Department of Sociology at New York University and a CIFAR Azrieli Global Scholar.

I study the tools and techniques that institutional actors employ to make decisions that shape people’s access to resources, support, and justice. I am particularly interested in the social implications of technologies that affect how people are classified, scored, and evaluated.

One stream of my research investigates the consequences of algorithms and classification systems that inform high-stakes decisions in criminal courts and social policy. A second stream explores how people respond to being the targets of prediction and how the public perceives predictive modeling. I also have a growing interest in the implications of generative AI for social science research.

I received a PhD in Sociology from Princeton University. Before NYU, I was an Assistant Professor at the University of Notre Dame.
