About Me

Hello! Thank you for visiting my website. I am a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Blavatnik School of Government and an Associate Member of St Antony’s College at the University of Oxford. I was previously a Dissertation Fellow at Texas A&M University, where I earned my Ph.D. in Political Science in August 2024.

My research focuses on comparative political institutions, legislative-executive politics, public policy, and political representation. I study major European and non-European parliamentary democracies, as well as the United States, primarily using quantitative methods complemented by qualitative evidence. My work has been published or is forthcoming in The Journal of Politics, Legislative Studies Quarterly, and Party Politics, among other outlets.
