I am an Assistant Professor of public administration and management at the University of Colorado Denver, School of Public Affairs and a Research Fellow at the Harvard Kennedy School of Government, Women and Public Policy Program (WAPPP).
My research lies at the intersection of public management and administration, personnel management, and social equity. Broadly, I apply research that investigates organizational equity performance.
