Research Director, Crime and Education Lab (UChicago)
As Research Director at the University of Chicago Education & Crime Labs, I lead large-scale randomized evaluations and long-term studies of programs that accelerate student learning, expand career pathways, increase high school completion, and reduce justice-system involvement.
My work focuses on understanding how schools and community programs can change students' life trajectories through evidence-based interventions: tutoring that strengthens academic skills, career experiences that broaden opportunities, and personalized supports that keep students engaged. Through partnerships with schools, government agencies, and nonprofits, I generate rigorous research that translates directly into improved policy and practice.
