I am a researcher at the Roosevelt Institute in Washington, DC, and a research associate at the Productivity Institute in London.

My research examines how governments can improve economic mobility for working people, with a recent focus on industrial legislation. 

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.
