My research examines how social environments, structural conditions, and psychosocial processes jointly shape population health. Drawing from epidemiology, causal inference, and behavioral science, my work investigates the pathways through which socioeconomic status, psychosocial stress, and environmental exposures influence chronic disease and mortality. I use rigorous quantitative methods to identify how behavioral, biological, and psychological mechanisms contribute to health inequities across the life course. Much of my research focuses on understanding heterogeneity in population health outcomes and uncovering the social processes that drive unequal patterns of risk and resilience.
