I am an
Assistant Professor of Political Science at Stony Brook University. Starting
July 2009, I will be an Assistant Professor of Political Science at George Washington
University. My research
and teaching interests center on American politics, judicial politics, and
political methodology. The subjects of my research include judicial decision
making, the Supreme Court, inter-branch interactions; judicial appointment
politics; public opinion, political behavior, political psychology, and the
nexus between institutions and public opinion; and legislative politics. In
political methodology, I am particularly interested in multilevel
(hierarchical) modeling, event history (duration) modeling, models for panel
and time-series cross-sectional data, Bayesian data analysis, structural
equation modeling, and experimental methods. See my “Research” page for more
about my current research and research in progress.
I teach
undergraduate courses in judicial politics and constitutional law, and graduate
courses in judicial politics and political methodology.
