This week, I was awarded the Franklin L. Burdette/Pi Sigma Alpha Award for the best paper presented at @apsa.bsky.social 2026! My paper "Political Action in the Dark Web" explores how political activity and radicalization spread in illicit digital networks. See 🧵 for my paper!

🚨 Excited for my first solo preprint! Using a state-rep survey (>30K) and district-level data from VA, I find evidence that homeschooling is often a response to perceived racial threat. Read at: osf.io/preprints/so...

🚨 My first solo preprint is out! I study Grok's fact-checking on X and show: 📌 Professional fact-checkers are a major source of Grok. 📌 Grok becomes more accurate as more articles from fact-checkers become available. 🔗 ssrn.com/abstract=626...

I highly recommend this new JCR article by @ricepolisci.bsky.social Ph.D. student @connerjoyce.bsky.social. It uses a creative empirical strategy to evaluate whether states can control non-state hackers operating from their territory if incentivized to do so-- key to international cooperation.
