Mentorship


Overview

I am passionate about mentorship and actively engage in direct consultation and supervision with a set of highly promising students. I am currently supervising two undergraduate’s empirical research projects and was recently awarded a Faculty-Student Mentorship Fellowship with a third student. As a graduate student, I chaired our mentorship program (2019-20) and our Professional Development Committee (2022-23) and served as a direct supervisor to the grad students on the TARS project for the W8 deposit to the ICPSR

Quantitative Methods Consultation
The sub-concentration to my PhD is in quantitative methods. I have extensive training in a variety of quantitative and statistical techniques and approaches to social science and survey research. I have tutored and taught statistics and quant methods for various skill levels and I can offer instruction in the following:

Linear and Multiple Regression:
  • OLS
  • Logit
  • Probit
  • Poisson
  • Negative Binomial
Latent Variables and Psychometrics:
  • Factor analysis (C & E)
  • SEM (especially Latent Class Analysis
  • Cross-Lagged Panel Data Models
  • Item Response Theory (IRT)
Demographic Techniques:
  • Period Life Tables
  • Decomposition
  • Event History Models


I offer training in Stata for all of the above plus tips and tricks for efficiency and organization in Stata. I also use R for my work, but there are better resources out there for instruction in R (I recommend EdX).

Please contact me if you would like to set up a tutoring session or workshop.
