缅北禁地

I am a Lecturer in International Politics and the Co-Convenor of the 缅北禁地 Quantitative Research in Politics group. In addition, I currently serve as the Co-Organizer of the (PNOC). Previously, I taught at University College London and Florida State University, held postdoctoral fellowships at the Niehaus Center for Globalization and Governance (Princeton University) and the Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs (Harvard Kennedy School), was the Managing Editor of Security Studies, and earned a Ph.D. in Political Science from The Ohio State University.

Before entering academia, I worked as a career diplomat in Brazil. In this position, I experienced first-hand the search for international status: like other emerging powers, Brazil then strove to be recognized as an equal by the great powers. But while a growing scholarly consensus indicates that the search for status motivates foreign policy and may even cause wars, we still understand little about how countries achieve status or how status motivates foreign policy behavior. My work engages these debates by drawing from multidisciplinary research and using a multi-method approach.
