About me

I'm a political scientist by training (where my research focused on the political economy of international trade and investment). Since leaving academia, I've worked as a quantitative social scientist and evaluator in a variety of fields with extensive experience in field experiments / randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and survey research. I joined the Wikimedia Foundation on the Global Data and Insights team in 2021 and joined the Research team in 2023. I live in Washington, DC USA with my wife and daughter and our three cats.

My work

On the Research Team, I primarily support our Knowledge Gaps work.
