About Me
I am an Associate Professor of Sociology at the University of California, Los Angeles.
My research focuses on social inequality in the contemporary United States. I am particularly interested in using large-scale experiments and surveys to examine the mechanisms behind inequalities in schools, families, and labor markets. Other projects use experimental methods to examine public attitudes, and how these attitudes are linked with inequalities on account of gender, social class, race, and other characteristics.
Prior to coming to UCLA, I was an Assistant Professor at Ohio State University.
I received a Ph.D. in sociology, M.S. in applied statistics, and M.A. in sociology, all from Indiana University, and a B.S. in social policy from Northwestern University.
