Today was the most exciting day of my life: An in-person enumerator from the Census Bureau stopped by to interview me for the Current Population Survey! I can't wait to tell my students that I'm contributing to the data we use for statistics exercises.

I'm facilitating a causal inference reading group next semester for Sociology PhD students. (I will also be learning!) If there are (1) pedagogical articles or (2) empirical examples in soc that you ❤️, will you share in the comments? [And please RT to help me crowd-source!]

I'm trying to find some sociology papers to bring into my intro statistics course for grad students. Straightforward quant analyses where the data are publicly available. Does anyone have any suggestions?

ASA’s new journal, Sex & Sexualities @sexandsexualities.bsky.social‬, fosters space for rigorous intersectional, interdisciplinary, transnational, feminist, and critical research. Now accepting cutting-edge sociological research! Find out more about the journal here: https://bit.ly/4lGzp8k.

PhDone! I was honored to have Professor Andres Villarreal hooding me yesterday.

This fall I'm teaching an introductory statistics class for graduate students in sociology, and I'm looking for a textbook. The course covers probability, sampling, and basic data analysis, barely touching on regression. Does anyone have a textbook they like? I'd love one with R examples.

I am thrilled to share that I will be joining the Department of Sociology at Emory University this fall as an Assistant Professor! Excited for a new chapter in Atlanta 🔥🍑

I'm honored that my paper on double robust methods has received the ASA Methods Clifford Clogg Award for Best Graduate Student Paper!

I deeply appreciate the committee's recognition, and I couldn't have done this without the support of Chad Hazlett, @jenniebrand.bsky.social, and Onyi Arah.
