Thank you for stopping by. I am currently a Ph.D. student in the Department of Politics at Princeton University, studying American Politics. Specifically, I study political behavior as well as race and ethnic politics. My predominant interest is understanding the interaction between elections, voters, and race in American politics. Also, I am interested in understanding how emerging identities, such as bi-racialism and being a Millennial, shape voter behavior. Finally, I have developed a growing interest in political economy and inequality in the United States, with a focus on classism, labor, and public economics, as well as the ways in which capitalism and racial identity intersect.

Some of the questions that motivate my research include how do biracial identities fit into the American electoral scene in the 21^st-century? In what ways does White identity politics play a role in voter behavior, particularly in a post-Trump America? How do political candidates use emerging technologies, such as Twitter to subvert the news cycle and promote their own political identity? In what ways do financial contributions and probabilistic polling contribute to strategic campaigning? And last (but certainly not least), how do political candidates navigate an increasingly demanding electoral process?

I hold a B.S. and an M.A. in Political Science from The University of Houston.
