Welcome!

I'm an associate professor of quantitative methodology at the University of Georgia. My main research goals lie in the advancement of multivariate psychometric models. Specifically, I have focused my research on a class of contemporary item response models called diagnostic classification models [DCMs]. In addition to methodological research, I collaborate with applied researchers to use DCMs and other psychometric models to answer critical questions in educational contexts.

Unfortunately, due to lack of funding, I will not be able to accept students to start in the fall of 2027. But I am always happy to work with students and support their research efforts, as well as discuss our graduate program. Contact me if you are interested in applying to the Quantitative Methodology Ph.D. program at UGA.
