Welcome!

I am the Founder and CEO of HumanAI Ventures, where I lead two ventures: Survey Fluency, an AI-powered survey analysis platform that automates toplines, cross-tabs, executive summaries, and PowerPoint generation from raw survey data, and Delphic Polling, a political data and polling consultancy.

I hold a Ph.D. in Political Science at the University of California, Davis, where my dissertation examined the influence of out-of-district donors on congressional representation.

Prior to founding HumanAI, I served as Assistant Director of Research for AI Product Development at Moody's Analytics, where I led generative AI product development for commercial real estate credit risk analysis.

My peer-reviewed research has been published in Electoral Studies, Political Behavior, Election Law Journal, American Politics Research, and PLOS ONE, with coverage in The Economist and The Washington Post. My work spans campaign finance, elections and voting behavior, political polarization, and survey methodology.

I received my B.A. in political science from the University of New Mexico in 2015, where I worked in the offices of Senator Martin Heinrich and Then-Representative Michelle Lujan Grisham.

Outside of work, I enjoy stargazing, cooking, cycling, and exploring probability theory.
