I am a doctoral candidate in Political Communication at The Ohio State University, where my research examines how communities are shaped by politics, morality, and social identity. Using methods from network analysis, computational linguistics, and political psychology, I study how people connect, argue, and belong in civic life. Recognized with the Albert Warren Scholarship for Excellence in Teaching, I strive to bring the same energy and rigor to the classroom. My work is also grounded in professional experience across political campaigns, international diplomacy, and public policy. Learn more at TheNewCivics.org.
