I am a social scientist with extensive expertise in study design, statistical modeling, and people management. Since Fall 2021 I have worked as a Senior Research Manager at Rethink Priorities, a think tank dedicated to helping philanthropists, grantmakers, and policymakers identify high-impact opportunities. I primarily focus on projects related to animal welfare. From 2014 to 2019 I was a Ph.D. student in the Department of Psychology at the University of Miami, where I studied the evolution of cooperation in humans. My main line of research focused on how to mitigate the effect of socially desirable responding on the measurement of altruistic and moral motivation. I also investigated whether deliberate attempts to take the perspective of needy others increases empathic concern and helping, for which I earned a 2020 Student Publication Award from the Society for Personality and Social Psychology. Finally, I taught introductory statistics twice and earned a concentration in quantitative psychology. I was a postdoctoral scholar from 2019 to 2021. I helped develop a new algorithm for predicting suicidality among military veteran outpatients during my time at the Department of Health Care Policy at Harvard Medical School. After that, I studied tools for detecting, estimating, and reducing risk for gambling-related harm at the Division on Addiction at Cambridge Health Alliance. During this period, I regularly contributed to the BASIS, acted as an associate editor at Collabra: Psychology, and served on the Data and Methods Committee of the Psychological Science Accelerator.Google scholar profile: https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=et6GOVgAAAAJ&hl=en
