I was the 2024-2026 Rappaport Fellow at Harvard Law School. In Fall 2026 I will begin a clerkship on the Second Circuit Court of Appeals.

I work on questions at the intersection of legislative politics and public law doctrine. My current project and job market paper examines the place of legislative capacity in statutory interpretation and probes how the Supreme Court’s major questions cases account (or don’t) for the effects of that doctrine on capacity.

Another project excavates the structure and effects of “obligations to consider”—evidence rules like the requirement that federal agencies consider public comments—which require decisionmakers to consider a source of legal meaning or effect, but do not require that any particular weight be assigned to that source.

I received my J.D. from Yale Law School where I was the Editor-in-Chief of the Yale Journal of Law & the Humanities. Before that, I received an MA in Legal and Political Theory from University College London, graduating with distinction. My BA is from the University of Minnesota, where I graduated summa cum laude. After completing my fellowship, I anticipate clerking on the Second Circuit Court of Appeals. My work has appeared in the Yale Law Journal and the Washington University Jurisprudence Review.
