My research aims to inform strategies to prevent and end homelessness. In my current projects, I focus on how structural inequality contributes to homelessness, and what local and national actors can (and should) do about it. I have more than a decade of community-engaged research experience and expertise in quantitative and qualitative methods. My doctoral research was funded by the National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellowship Program, and has been enhanced by partnerships with the Chicago Coalition for the Homeless, Racial Equity Partners, and other policymakers, researchers, advocates, and people experiencing homelessness across the U.S.
