Research
My research interests include inequality, gender, work, family, and social policy. In my research, I explore 1) class disparities in access to family-friendly workplace supportiveness, 2) gender inequality in the labor market, and 3) organizational contexts of the work-family interface. My work has been published in journals including Social Forces, Social Science Research, and American Sociological Review. My paper has won the 2023 IPUMS Time Use Research Award.
