My research focuses on how the quality, stability and availability of housing interact with and shape the well-being of vulnerable families. As a faculty affiliate of the Center for Demography and Ecology, my research is most closely connected to the research areas of Fertility, Families and Households and the Demography of Inequality. My training and expertise in the area of housing and income-conditioned benefit policies allow me to mentor students in exploring the dynamic relationship between housing, public policy and family well-being.
