I am an Assistant Professor of political science at Iowa State University. I received my PhD in political science from the University of Florida and MA in politics from New York University.
My research and teaching interests broadly focus on the cultural and political foundations of societal change. In particular, my book manuscript examines how mass identity and group mobilization shape both non-violent and violent politics. This work has been supported by several sources, including the Fulbright Program, IREX, FLAS, and the American Councils of Learned Societies and the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.
The nature of my work takes me to numerous places, including extensive time conducting research in the Russian Federation, Ukraine and the Republic of Moldova. I have also taken short-term courses at the University of California – Berkeley and Lomonosov Moscow State University. Prior to coming to Iowa State I was a Post-Doctoral Fellow in the Conflict Resolution Institute at the Josef Korbel School of International Studies.
