Research
|
|
I earned my PhD at UCLA under the guidance of
Rob Mare.
My research spans a broad array of
population phenomena in which the actions of individuals and other units (such as families,
couples or neighborhoods) are dynamically interdependent. My dissertation blended statistical
and agent-based methods to examine the relationship between individuals' decisions about
where to live and patterns of residential segregation. I was mainly interested in
identifying the conditions under which income inequality and economic factors associated
with neighborhood choice can exacerbate or attenuate race segregation.
Since arriving at Michigan, I've embarked on a collaborative project with Yu Xie on the relationship between
education and health later in life, and also started a new modeling project on mate choice and
marriage market dynamics.
