Biography
I am a Lecturer (Assistant Professor) in Education within the Education Leadership and Policy group at the University of Glasgow.
My current research focuses on a) the impacts of education policies, programs, and practices on civic learning outcomes, b) access to civic learning opportunities, and c) the measurement of civic learning opportunities and outcomes. I study these and adjacent topics across education systems with a particular focus on the United States and Germany.
I currently serve on advisory committees for IEA's International Civic and Citizenship Education Study (ICCS 2027) and am part of the Academic Advisory Group for the U.K. All-Party Parliamentary Group on Political Literacy.
I also serve as an associate editor of Large-scale Assessments in Education.
I previously held research positions at the American Institutes for Research (AIR), the Annenberg Institute at Brown University, the Hector Research Institute of Education Sciences and Psychology at the University of Tübingen, and Educational Testing Service (ETS).
I obtained a Ph.D. in educational policy from Michigan State University and an M.A. in education and social policy from New York University.
