Biography

I received my PhD from Tel-Aviv University in 2011. Before coming to Bar-Ilan University I was a postdoctoral research associate at the Center for Research on Inequalities and the Life Course (CIQLE) at Yale University (2012-2014), and I also had held a postdoctoral fellowship at the Department of Sociology at the University of Haifa (2010-2011). My main areas of interest include Social Stratification, the Sociology of Education, Rational Choice in Education, and Research Methods.
