Sitting at the intersection of K-12 education, policy, and educational psychology, my research agenda is driven by theory and addresses questions relevant to policy and practice. In particular, I concentrate on historical educational exclusion by race and ability and seek inclusive solutions via policy, programming, and instruction. Much of my work involves gifted and special education systems, as well as teacher and leader capacity and development. I have engaged in projects related to Open Science and meta-research so am passionate about conducting high-quality, transparent research and promoting rigor in the field.
