I am a British Academy Postdoctoral Fellow and a Research Fellow at Keble College. My work sits at the intersection between regime change studies, historical political economy, and institutional design. My BA project uses mixed methods and leverages evidence from Latin America to comparatively explore how and why taxes, social policies, and market regulations vary inside countries. If you’re keen, you can read more about it here.
I recently concluded a Visiting Fellowship at the Kellogg Institute for International Studies at the University of Notre Dame. Previously, I was a Departmental Lecturer in Latin American Studies at the Oxford School of Global and Area Studies, and I concluded my DPhil in Politics as a member of the DPIR and Wolfson College. So, I am very happy to be back!
My doctoral dissertation won the APSA William Anderson Award, and my research has appeared in peer-reviewed journals such as Democratization, Agenda Política, and Perfiles Latinoamericanos, and I have authored opinion pieces for The Washington Post, the Presidential Power Blog, and the Oxford Politics Blog.
I enjoy working out, swimming, and long walks. I’m also a Starcraft 2 fan, and a sci-fi, coffee, and cinema aficionado.
