I am a postdoctoral fellow with the Polarization Research Lab at Stanford University. In Fall 2024, I will join the University of Notre Dame as an Assistant Professor of Democracy and Global Affairs. My research interests are broadly focused on comparative politics, political economy, and political behavior. In my research, I use experimental, observational, and comparative research designs to examine the conditions under which citizens constrain politicians in their attempts to undermine democratic institutions. While my primary focus is on European democracies, some of my work also covers the United States, Turkey, and Brazil.
My work has appeared or is forthcoming in the American Journal of Political Science, the European Journal of Political Research, Party Politics, and Democratization. I completed my Ph.D. in political science at the Center for Comparative and International Studies, ETH Zurich, and am an affiliated researcher with the UNSW Resilient Democracy Lab.
