About Me

Hello! My name is Amreeta, and I am currently pursuing my PhD in Political Science at the University of California, Merced. I have a BSc in Politics and International Relations from the University of Bristol, UK. My passion lies in understanding how collective political behaviors and decision-making are shaped, and I love combining data science with my interest in politics. My work focuses on using machine learning and statistical models to explore the intersection of gender, technology, and elections. I’m always excited about the ways data can help unravel the stories behind political dynamics!

At present, I am serving as the Lab Manager at the Political Economy of Agricultural and Rural Societies (PEARS) Lab, a computational social science lab at UC Merced specializing in natural experiments, machine learning and geospatial methods.
