​​I am a Postdoctoral Fellow with the Program in Quantitative Social Science and Department of Sociology at Dartmouth College.  I completed my Ph.D. in Sociology at Cornell University in 2019, where I was a member of the Social Dynamics Laboratory.  

My research focuses on evaluating social behavior from the 'bottom up': how do individual interactions, evaluations, and decisions form larger social structures?  Substantively, I focus on questions related to the future of social connection, coordination, and work: How do individuals navigate careers that occur outside of formal organizations? How do groups coordinate their behavior in the absence of a leader or leviathan? How can we identify the motives of social interaction from large online networks? How do behaviors and preferences spread and cluster?

My research draws on a wide variety of empirical cases, from hockey fights to film collaborations to online reviews. I also use agent-based models and theoretically-grounded simulations to examine the macro-level consequences of micro-level social interactions.

Before beginning my graduate studies, I received a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Yale University in 2010, and then worked as a Business Analyst and Data Scientist for Wayfair.com from 2010-13.
