I’m excited to launch this new website to share my research, projects, and ongoing thoughts with the broader community.

What You’ll Find Here

Projects — A selection of my current and past research projects, including descriptions of research questions, methodologies, and outcomes.

Publications — A comprehensive list of my peer-reviewed papers, conference presentations, and preprints.

Blog — Occasional posts about research methodology, tools, interesting findings, and reflections on academic life.

About — Background information about my research interests and academic journey.

Why Start a Research Website?

As a PhD student preparing for the academic job market (and internships!), I wanted to create a space where potential collaborators, hiring committees, and interested readers can easily learn about my work. This site serves as:

  1. A research portfolio — Showcasing my projects and publications in one organized place
  2. A communication platform — Sharing thoughts and insights through blog posts
  3. A professional presence — A clean, accessible academic website

What’s Coming

I plan to regularly update this site with:

  • New blog posts about ongoing research challenges and insights
  • Project updates as my work progresses
  • Links to new publications and preprints
  • Lecture slides and teaching materials

Thanks for visiting! Feel free to reach out if you’d like to discuss research, potential collaborations, or have any questions.
