BIO

I am a Research Associate Professor at the University of Louisville’s Kentucky Reading Research Center (KYRRC). With a PhD in Evaluation and Applied Statistics, I specialize in causal inference and program evaluation. I leverage advanced statistical methodologies, such as Causal Forest and TMLE, alongside R programming to rigorously analyze the effectiveness of educational interventions. My work focuses on transforming complex datasets into actionable insights that inform policy and practice. I am dedicated to using data-driven research to improve student outcomes and support evidence-based decision-making in the social sciences.
