Welcome to my webpage. I am Professor of Public Policy at UMBC and Interim Graduate Program Director for the Department of Emergency Health and Disaster Systems. My research affiliations include the Education Research Alliance for New Orleans at Tulane University, the Maryland Longitudinal Data System Center, the IES-funded National Center for Research on Education Access and Choice (REACH), the Baltimore Education Research Consortium at Johns Hopkins University, and the Education Policy Innovation Collaborative (EPIC) at Michigan State University. My work employs state longitudinal systems from Texas, Louisiana, Maryland, and Michigan.
My research focuses on the implementation, equity, and effects of market-based policies in public education including demand-side obstacles to basic and college education, deregulation and decentralization of pubic education and teacher labor markets, and mechanisms for school choice. I live and work in the charming City of Baltimore where my research focuses on urban public schools, as well as comparative work across the US and the developing world. My current projects include access to magnet high schools in Baltimore, teacher labor markets in Maryland and Michigan, school choice lotteries in New Orleans, and school discipline and juvenile justice reforms in Maryland.
