I am a fifth-year Ph.D. candidate at the Network Science Institute of Northeastern University. My work focues on the impacts of new technology on the labor market, advised by Prof. Alicia Sasser Modestino. I also study human-A.I. teams and perceptions of A.I. Here is my CV.

In my free time, I make videos on Instagram (70k followers) about cycling and bike touring. I have biked across the U.S. from Oregon to New Jersey during the Summer of 2023 with my dad. In the Summer of 2024, I rode the Tour Divide. It was 2700 hard miles from Banff, Canada to the Mexico border. This summer, I will be riding in Europe.

I graduated from the University of Wisconsin - Madison with majors in Mathematics and Psychology and a minor in Computer Science. There I worked on modeling temporal Reddit data, modeling pedestrian walking paths, and managing data from a fleet of Fitbits.

My weekly newsletter the Bike Bulletin covers bikepacking tips, cycling news, and personal stories. It's a 5-minute read and gets delivered every Thursday.
