Bio

As a scholar of law and society, my research is primarily focused on social inequality, the function of law in society, housing inequality, property issues, and research and teaching methodology.

Since Fall 2022, I have served as an assistant professor of law at The University of Massachusetts School of Law. I earned law degrees from Boston College Law School (JD) and Boston University School of Law (LLM). I earned my PhD in Sociology from Columbia University in 2020, after which I served in that department as a full-time lecturer in the Department of Sociology.

My scholarly work has previously been published in journals such as Sociological Methodology, Gender and Society, The Stanford University Law and Policy Review, Critical Sociology, TRAILS, Frontiers in Sociology, and The Alabama Civil Rights and Civil Liberties Law Review.
