I study how inequality is produced and reproduced across societies, and how communities answer economic and institutional pressure. My work joins comparative social policy, labor markets, and community development, with a focus on capacity building under conditions of inequality, crisis, and institutional change.

I hold a PhD in Sociology focused on social inequality and transnational sociology, and a PhD in Community Development specializing in community capacity building, sustainable development, and applied community-based policy analysis. I also hold an MA in Survey Research and an MA in Sociology, and completed postdoctoral research in social and development sciences.

My work centers on inequality and the institutions that produce it: welfare regimes across societies, the labor-market restructuring that follows economic crisis, and the demographic and gendered patterns that shape who gains and who is left behind. A second strand, from my training in community development, examines how communities and regions build capacity under those same pressures.

I work with multilevel and longitudinal models, structural equation modeling, and survey design, alongside qualitative and computational methods, choosing the approach the question calls for. Analysis in R, and Python.
