Her thesis examines changing norms around the deployment of women in state combat, and is generously supported by an Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) Studentship as well as the Queen's College Waverley Scholarship.

I am an early career researcher on European security and the changing international order, currently serving as a College Lecturer in Politics at Hertford College. My academic background includes a Doctor of Philosophy in International Relations (DPhil) from the University of Oxford and a Master’s in International Security (summa cum laude) from Sciences Po, Paris.

A DPhil candidate at the University of Oxford, funded by the Leverhulme Trust and the Department of Politics and International Relations, my research recovers and evaluates the international thinking of historical women in the United States academy from 1919 to 1949. Focused on the interconnected, critical mass of largely Eastern institutions, especially women’s colleges and historically black colleges and universities, I use extensive archival research in the US to find thinkers and analyse their work, both published and unpublished.
