Hello! I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Political Science at the University of Wisconsin–Madison.
My research examines the news media, political behavior, and public opinion, with a focus on the United States. I explore the challenges of the contemporary information environment and the mass media’s faltering capacity to provide the public with news information that is central to democratic accountability. To do so, I draw on a wide range of tools, including experimental methods, survey methods, text analysis, and machine learning. My work has been published in leading scholarly journals such as the American Political Science Review, The Journal of Politics, and the British Journal of Political Science.
