Sociology Ph.D. Student, UC Berkeley

Research interests: (sub)urban sociology, housing, race/ethnicity and inequality, policing

My current project examines racial threat in suburban California. Given the suburbanization of poverty, in part due to the gentrification of the urban core, I ask: Does racial threat hold in the suburbs? And are the determinants of police spending similar in the suburbs compared with the coastal urban core?

Previous projects been covered by NextCity and the Press-Enterprise.
