Everyone should always be as excited as Amelia was opening her Cocomelon present. 😍

Happy 2nd (!!!) Birthday, Amelia! Daddy loves you so much!

Nothing is more humbling than recording teaching videos. Do I look like that?! Do I sound like that?! Who is this creature??!!

So pumped to be in St. Pete for SPSA 2023. Looking forward to being reunited with my UGA folks, making new friends. and hearing about some exciting research.

My heart is full having my three wonderful mentees, Matt Baker, Ethan, and Adam G. Rutkowski, Ph.D. all together for #SPSA conference fun. ❤️ So proud of these guys!

SPSA 2023 has been fantastic. From catching up with old friends, to meeting Twitter friends in person (y’all are amazing, btw), this has been my favorite conference so far. I’m already sad about leaving tomorrow. 😭

So excited to announce that this book will be published in Fall 2023 (Stanford University Press)

My little doppelgänger hopes everyone had a great Thanksgiving!

Last day of a great trip to Asheville with Matt Baker. Great food, great drinks, great times!

Uh oh…I’m in trouble. 🤦🏻‍♂️

If you’ve ever wondered just how “political” federal judges are, and whether Trump’s judicial nominees are unique in this regard, check out my new chapter in Oregon State’s Open Judicial Politics! open.oregonstate.education/ojp3e-vol1/cha…

Any department will be lucky to hire Abigail Hassett! She is an amazing teacher, scholar, coauthor, and friend.

Publication Alert 🚨:Christina L. Boyd, Adam G. Rutkowski, Ph.D., Jennifer Hickey, and I explore the Politics of Federal Judicial Selection and how it effects judicial diversity in the newest issue of Law & Contemporary Problems: scholarship.law.duke.edu/cgi/viewconten…

Back in Troy after a fantastic time in PR for SPSA 2025! It was wonderful to see my advisor Christina L. Boyd, grad school friends Matt Baker and twitterless Ethan Boldt, and judicial politics colleagues from around the country. Already looking forward to NOLA in 2026!
