Headshot of Nicolette Bardele

I am a PhD Candidate in the Department of Sociology at Harvard University. I am primarily interested in mixed-methods research at the intersection of criminal justice, inequality, and rural and urban sociology. My dissertation draws from quantitative administrative data on people serving probation/parole sentences and qualitative interview data with probation/parole agents to explore how spatial and temporal context shape the experience and administration of community-based supervision across rural and urban communities in the United States.

Prior to graduate school, I earned a BA in sociology and statistics at the University of Notre Dame, and I am originally from Milwaukee, WI.
