I am a researcher at the Roosevelt Institute in New York and at The Productivity Institute in Kings College London. I also serve as a research fellow at the Institute for the Future of Work. 

My research examines how governments can improve economic mobility for working people. 

I have previously worked at the Urban Institute, the Federal Reserve, the Yale Sociology Department, the Center for Economic and Policy Research, and under Katherine S. Newman, provost and professor of public policy at the University of California, Berkeley. 

I hold a BA from Yale University, where I studied economic history, and an MRes from University College London.
