Welcome! I am a visiting assistant professor at Union College. Previously, I was a visiting instructor at Macalester College. I obtained my Ph.D. in political science from the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities, in 2024.

My research and teaching interests lie at the intersection of social welfare provision, authoritarian politics, and comparative and global political economy, and I have regional expertise in the Middle East and North Africa. My research has appeared in the Journal of European Social Policy, World Development, and Social Indicators Research. Abstracts and published versions of my work are available here.
