I'm a Data Scientist at Code for America. We work with states to automatically clear criminal convictions, and on making the safety net more accessible. For more on our criminal justice efforts, see the Clean Slate Initiative or this succinct oped in The Hill. For recent good news, see here.

Previously, I completed a PhD in sociology at Stanford, affiliated with the Center on Poverty and Inequality. My academic work focuses on social mobility - how its changed, how to describe it, and its consequences for individuals.
I received my M.Sc. at Oxford University in 2011, and my BA at Sciences Po Paris in 2010.
