I am the undergraduate Co-Director of the Social Data Science major in the College of Behavioral and Social Sciences, Director of Graduate Studies for the Survey and Data Science Master’s and Ph.D. program in the Joint Program in Survey Methodology, and an Associate Research Professor at University of Maryland, College Park. I teach a variety of courses in data science, machine learning, statistics, and programming at the undergraduate and graduate levels using both Python and R.
You can see some of my pedagogical projects on the Projects page. Some examples of teaching material are provided in the GitHub Repositories page.
My research is focused on social network analysis, network sampling methods (particularly respondent-driven sampling), population size estimation, data science education, and social science applications of machine learning. You can see the Publications page for a list of my journal articles.
