Cambridge, Massachusetts
I’m a researcher and photographer based in Cambridge, Massachusetts. I’m finishing a Ph.D. in the Department of Government at Harvard, where my work examines how Americans think about foreign companies and the politics of the economy.
Outside the dissertation, I make pictures, teach research methods, and build small tools for survey researchers. This site collects what I’m working on, what I’m reading, and the places I’ve been. (Placeholder — replace with your own.)
