Hello and welcome to my site! I am a Postdoctoral Research Associate with the Klau Institute for Civil & Human Rights at the University of Notre Dame (mentored by Zoltán Búzás). I received my PhD in international relations and comparative politics from the Ohio State University in August of 2026 with support from the Presidential Fellowship – the most prestigious graduate fellowship awarded at Ohio State.
My research, on postcolonial participation in international relations, has been published in the European Journal of International Relations and has received awards from Ohio State’s Department of Political Science as well as APSA’s International Relations Theory Section. This work has been funded by the RISC-RISE Consortium, the Mershon Center for International Security, and the International Research and Scholarship Grant at Ohio State, among others.
Prior to my doctoral training, I was a Princeton in Africa Fellow at the International Rescue Committee in Nairobi and received my BA from Case Western Reserve University.
