My work focuses mainly on immigration and 移民政策. 我研究移民政策对移民、他们的家庭和社区的影响. I've written on the ways that U.S. 移民执法影响儿童的学业进展，以及混合身份家庭中个人的政治参与和入籍模式. I have also explored questions related to immigrant detention, immigrant entrepreneurship, as well as immigrant retirement and social security claiming behavior.
