I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Criminology at the University of South Florida. I received my Ph.D. in Criminology (2023) and A.M. in Statistics (2022) from the University of Pennsylvania, and then worked as a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at Boston College. Before joining Ph.D. program, I studied Russian criminal justice as a researcher with the Institute for the Rule of Law, European University in St Petersburg.

My work focuses on victimization, gun violence, illegal drugs, and policy evaluation. I have recently published in Justice Quarterly, Journal of Criminal Justice, Aggression & Violent Behavior, and Criminology & Public Policy.
