I am a PhD candidate in sociology at Duke University. My research focuses on the impact of healthcare technologies on existing health(care) quality and disparities in the U.S., situating my work at the intersection of medical sociology; science, knowledge and technology; and race and inequality studies. These research areas inform my dissertation work, in which I examine how technologies used by patients, providers, and hospital systems may impact healthcare outcomes for patients and affect disparities in care. My work is supported by the National Academies of Science, Engineering, and Medicine’s (NASEM) Ford Foundation Predoctoral Fellowship. 

In other active projects, I explore how future technology developers interpret and address bias in computing and technology, and how evolving definitions of racial identity inform the measurement of racial health disparities.

Prior to my doctoral studies, I worked for New Profit, a venture philanthropy firm, as a manager of Measurement and Evaluation. I graduated with a B.A. in Sociology from Harvard University in 2018. Outside of research and teaching, I enjoy live music, live sporting events, Marvel movies, and good food.
