I am a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the WZB Berlin Social Science Center.
I study comparative political behavior at both the mass and elite levels. My research examines the politics of crime, far-right extremism, immigration, and political representation, with a regional focus on Western Europe. My work has appeared or is forthcoming in the American Journal of Political Science, the Journal of Politics, the European Journal of Political Research, and the Journal of Economic Behavior and Organization. My forthcoming book, co-authored with Rafaela Dancygier and Jonathan Homola, examines state responses to political extremism and will be published by Cambridge University Press (Elements in European Politics). My research has been recognized with the Best Graduate Student Paper Award from APSA’s Migration and Citizenship Section.
I received my Ph.D. in Politics from Princeton University.
