Lief Lin is Policy Research Fellow at the Progressive Policy Institute. He studied Political Science with a minor in Statistics University of Michigan. He was part of Michigan Political Consulting, a student group that offers pro-bono political strategy for campaigns and NGOs, and has also served as a research assistant studying diverse topics like behavioral pharmacology and the U.S. Congress.
