Welcome

I am an Associate Professor of Organizational Studies and Associate Professor (by courtesy) of Political Science at the University of Michigan.

I am also Associate Faculty at the Blavatnik School of Government, University of Oxford, and an Associate Fellow at Green Templeton College. From 2016-2024 I was an Associate Professor of Public Management at the Blavatnik School and a Research Fellow at Green Templeton College.

My research is on the politics and management of policy implementation, public service delivery, and bureaucratic reform. My book, Reform as Process: Implementing Change in Public Bureaucracies, will be published in early 2026 by Columbia University Press. I also teach and research on the challenges of causal inference, external validity, and applying evidence in government decision-making.
