My broad research interest breaks down into three key domains: labor market sociology, the accountability of political elites and (big) data-management. In the domain of labor market sociology I am in particular interested in gender, political labor markets, (political) career ambition (in particular among members of socially disadvantaged groups) and the formal modeling of the decision behavior of selection committees. When it comes to the accountability of political elites, I am interested in political trust and the role that social media can play in establishing new relations between citizens and elected representatives. Finally, being interested in using large-scale longitudinal observational data has led me to develop a particular affinity with (big) data-management. My long-term research ambition is to contribute to the development of solid analytical sociological theory that gives insight into the dynamics that shape (inequality in) (political) careers. Ultimately, my hope is that such knowledge could lead to better electoral institutions and recruitment practices. In particular, the political representation of socially disadvantaged groups.
