My recent research examines how citizens evaluate democracy, diplomacy, security, representation, and diversity in national and international contexts. I have used survey experiments, conjoint designs, natural experiments, and cross-national public-opinion data to examine questions in empirical social science. Substantive topics include public diplomacy and U.S. image abroad, attitudes toward foreign crises and security policy, Japanese elections and representation, discrimination tied to race, ethnicity, gender, and other social identities, and related issues in political behavior and political methodology.

I hold appointments at Florida State University and Waseda University, and teach courses on survey experiments, data visualization, and political methodology. I earned an M.A. in international and development economics from Yale University and a Ph.D. in political science from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
