Welcome to my GitHub page! Currently pursuing a Master's degree in Political Science at McGill University, I am an incoming PhD student at Cornell University's Department of Government.

My interest in the mechanisms at work in the formation and evolution of political attitudes in Quebec, Canada and the United States has been the driving force behind my academic aspirations, as well as the common thread of my theoretical and quantitative training. My research is currently supported by the Fonds de recherche du Québec – Société et culture (FRQSC) and the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC).

I previously received a Bachelor's degree in Political Science (Hons.) and completed an undergraduate certificate in Big Data Analytics and Computational Social Science from Université de Montréal (UdeM). My academic journey also took me to the University of Washington (Seattle) as a Fulbright-Killam Fellow, an experience I hold in high regard.

As a Student Researcher at the Center for the Study of Democratic Citizenship, I have the opportunity to collaborate with amazing scholars across several institutions. My current research roles include working with Prof. Valérie-Anne Mahéo at Université Laval, Prof. Jean-François Daoust at Université de Sherbrooke, and Prof. Dietlind Stolle at McGill University.

I have also held research positions at the MARPOR (WZB Berlin Social Sciences Center), the Canada Research Chair in Electoral Democracy (Université de Montréal), and the Chaire de recherche sur l’Évaluation des actions publiques à l’égard des jeunes et des populations vulnérables (École nationale d'administration publique). Each of these experiences has uniquely contributed to my understanding and perspective on democratic processes and political behavior.

Here is my Resume.
