I study why people commit crime, and how to prevent it.

About Me

I am a Ph.D. candidate in the School of Criminal Justice at Michigan State University.

I work with local and state law enforcement agencies in Michigan to enhance police-citizen relationships and conduct program evaluations to foster sustainable crime prevention solutions.

My research interests are centered on the intersection between crime and policing in communities. I focus specifically on how these patterns of behavior change over time and how they can have varying influences on the well-being of those who live in these communities.
