I'm a senior research associate at the Chair of International Relations and the Center for Intelligence and Security Studies (CISS), University of the German Federal Armed Forces Munich, and a fellow at the Michael Nicholson Center for Conflict and Cooperation, University of Essex.
Starting March 2021, I will be based at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) as a post-doctoral researcher, joining the Anatomy of Resistance Campaigns (ARC) project. My research focuses on the dynamics of intra-state conflict. In particular, I study the causes and consequences of counterinsurgency and peacekeeping effectiveness, state repression, and violent and nonviolent mobilisation. I act as scientific advisor in support of an IBM-led project developing a crisis early warning system for Germany’s Ministry of Defence. I take a special interest in teaching empirical conflict studies and quantitative methods, and received the Essex Excellence in Education teaching award in 2019. |
I hold a PhD from the University of Essex, and a diploma from the Norwegian Research School on Peace and Conflict. I served as a research associate and visiting scholar at Princeton University, the University of Mannheim, and the Peace Research Institute Oslo.
