I am a PhD student in the Department of Government and Politics at the University of Maryland, College Park. I research international dependence, civil conflict, and political violence. I am interested in the drivers of tactical variation, including how third-party and external state intervention in the conflict changes rebel groups’ incentives to use violent or non-violent tactics.
Prior to starting my PhD, I worked on the Global Peace Index with the Institute for Economics and Peace, as an analyst with the Australian Department of Defence, and on the Asia Power Index with the Lowy Institute.
