My research contributes to scholarship on race, gender, work, and organizations by examining how structural mechanisms within institutions perpetuate racial inequality, even in contexts that appear equitable in terms of mission or demographics. Across my projects, I employ advanced quantitative methods, including confirmatory factor analysis, multilevel structural equation modeling, latent profile analysis, and multinomial logistic regression. My broader research agenda integrates theories of racialized organizations and institutional inequality with empirical analyses of large-scale administrative and survey data to reveal how inequality is reproduced and maintained within the U.S. federal workforce.
