Biography
I joined IPUMS International in January 2024, where I primarily work with geography variables including developing scripts and workflows that prepare the geography variables for release. I am currently working on a major project to improve IPUMS International's geographic confidentiality procedures using a spatial optimization approach. I will graduate from the University of Minnesota with degrees in data science and geography in May 2026.
