I am a PhD Candidate in Government at Cornell University, specializing in national security, emerging technology, and intelligence. My research integrates causal inference, formal modeling, agent-based simulations, and big data machine learning analyses to study modern security threats.

I am also an Adjunct at RAND Corporation, where I work with the U.S. Space Force, and an Industry Fellow at Cornell’s Tech Policy Institute, consulting Microsoft on AI regulation and contributing to a Department of Defense project on semiconductor security.

Previously I was a modeling analyst at the Nielsen Corporation, working primarily on running time-series econometric models for the Coca Cola Corporation; and I was a Research Fellow in the Basic Income division at the Jain Family Institute. I obtained my BA in Economics from New York University (2015), MA in Politics from Columbia University (2017), and am expected to defend my dissertation at Cornell University in 2025.
