I am a comparative political psychologist and methodologist studying the origins, properties, and consequences of political belief systems. I also develop conceptual and computational methods for latent constructs that are often tricky to capture with conventional statistics. I currently work as a Post-doctoral fellow in the ERC project ‘Identity Compression’ housed in the Department of Psychology at the University of Limerick. Previously, I was the academic coordinator of the SCRIPTS Data and Methodology Center at Freie Universität Berlin and worked as a statistics and social data science help-desk consultant at the Odum Institute. You can find my research, CV, links to software & tutorials, and teaching material on these pages. Please feel free to contact me with any inquiries, bug reports, or based on substantive research interests.
