Welcome to my website! I am a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Institute for the Social Sciences at Humboldt Universität zu Berlin, and a Harry Frank Guggenheim Emerging Scholar for the 2024-25 academic year. I received my Ph.D. from Yale University in May 2025 with Departmental and University Distinction.

In my research, I examine what makes democracies resilient in the face of domestic and international challenges. My dissertation and the associated book project focus on how democracies can counter threats from violent, extremist actors.
