Taylor N. Trummel

Hi, welcome to my page. I’m an incoming Assistant Professor at Denison University in the Department of Politics and Public Affairs.

I study how immigration policy affects public opinion, political behavior, and identity formation in the United States using quantitative methods.

Informed by two large, original surveys and conjoint experiments I fielded in 2025 and 2026, my current work addresses immigration and perceptions of fairness in state-level policy design.

My research has been published in Politics, Groups, and Identities. I have received funding support from the American Political Science Association Centennial Center, the Global Latinidades Center, and the UC Santa Barbara Graduate Division Central Fellowship.

In 2026, I received my PhD in Political Science from the University of California, Santa Barbara.
