About Me
I study mass atrocities. My research has been published in World Politics, European Journal of International Relations, Journal of Global Security Studies, International Studies Quarterly, Political Science & Politics, and the International Journal of Transitional Justice. I also write for the mainstream media, with commentary pieces appearing in The New York Times, The Los Angeles Review of Books, Slate, Foreign Policy, and the Washington Post's Monkey Cage blog.
I am an associate professor in the Department of Political Science at University College London, where I direct the MA in Human Rights. I received my Ph.D. in political science from Columbia in October 2015 and have held fellowships at the Harvard Kennedy School's Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs and Stanford's Center for International Security and Cooperation. In addition, I have a J.D. and have practiced law in New York, Cambodia, and The Hague. I am also one of the conveners of the Advancing Research on Conflict (ARC) Consortium, which provides methodological and ethics training and support to researchers working in violence-affected contexts. |
