I am an Assistant Professor of political science in the School of Economic, Political and Policy Sciences, University of Texas at Dallas. Prior to that, I was a post-doc in the School of Politics and Global Studies, Arizona State University. I received my Ph.D in Political Science from the Department of Government, University of Essex in 2017.
My research focuses on state repression, political violence, and human rights measurement. I specialize in computational methods with a focus on machine learning and text analysis. I also work on the Sub-national Analysis of Repression Project (SNARP). My research is published in International Interactions, International Studies Quarterly, Journal of Conflict Resolution, Journal of Human Rights, and Journal of Peace Research. I received the ISA Human Rights Section's Steven C. Poe Best Graduate Student Paper Award in 2018 for this article. |
