About Me
I am an Assistant Professor in the University of Southern California's Department of Political Science and International Relations. I study the politics of forced migration, violent conflict, and humanitarian governance. My current book project, Homeward Bound: Refugee Return and Local Conflict after Civil War, examines how refugee return influences future patterns of conflict and displacement. Other ongoing research focuses on global asylum governance and qualitative research methods. My work has been funded by the National Science Foundation, U.S. Institute of Peace, and the Columbia Global Policy Initiative. You can read more about my work in International Security, Foreign Policy, Slate, the Washington Post's Monkey Cage Blog, and Lawfare. I have worked with international policy organizations including the U.S. Institute of Peace, the World Bank, and the Sudd Institute. I was awarded the 2019 Best Dissertation award from the Migration & Citizenship section of the American Political Science Association (APSA), and the inaugural Emerging Global Scholar Prize (2019) from Perry World House at the University of Pennsylvania. I hold a Ph.D. in political science from Columbia University and a B.A. from Wesleyan University. |
