Zev is a post-doctoral fellow with the Philosophy, Politics, and Economics program at the University of Pennsylvania, as well as former consulting Senior Research Analyst with CHIP. He holds a PhD in Political Science from the University of Michigan, where his work looks at political theory and psychology in various forms, attending to matters like affective trust, democratic theory, and political inequality.

He also spends a fair amount of time running and trying to stay up on indie music.
