Excited to share this new WP (and my first co-authored paper in BC🥳) w/ @doughesm and Dr.Miller. We also find that the opening of a nearby charter school increases the likelihood of Catholic school closure. See the example of Chicago, IL below!

Thanks so much, Shaun🥹 I couldn’t be happier to have such a wonderful advisor. My doctoral student life is amazing with you!
If you haven’t yet met @yerin_yoon_ of the @bclynchschool you soon will. She just exemplified poise and sophistication of methods and presentation in only her 3rd year of doctoral study. Thanks to #2024appam and #sea2024 for these opportunities for her to showcase our work!
I just finished three presentations at #2024APPAM and #SEA2024! It was an amazing experience sharing our work (with @doughesm), and receiving insightful feedback from colleagues. There are so many reasons to love APPAM, but this year’s highlight has to be this cute teddy bear 🧸
Heading to #2024APPAM! Thursday morning, I’ll present two papers with @doughesm. If you’re interested in School Choice / Career & Technical Edu, don’t miss these panels! Plus, as a 2024 Student Ambassador, I’ll co-lead an ignite chat on Building and Maintaining Networks. Join us!
