I'm an Assistant Professor of Sociology and Data Science at Purdue University, with lots of other connections that reflect the interdisciplinary nature of my research. Before coming to Purdue, I did my PhD at the University of Colorado Boulder and my postdoc at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard. My main research interests are in statistical/computational genomics and in sociogenomics, which lies at the intersection of demography and genetics. I am interested in how genetics interact with everyday life experiences to shape behavioral outcomes and in building better computational models for genomic identification and prediction.
