I applied early decision to Brown in 2016, and was accepted. I received the Philo Sherman Bennet Thesis Prize for my published research entitled “Capturing the White Women Vote: An Analysis of Characteristic Determinants and Political Messaging." I was a research assistant for Professor Wendy Schiller and published two pieces with her: Cambridge University Press, Inequality Across State Lines: How Policymakers Have Failed Domestic Violence Victims in the United States (2023) and American Political Science Association: “Inequality in Human Security: Gun Ownership & Domestic Violence” (2018).
