I'm a PhD candidate at the Department of Government, University of Essex, and a member of the Research School on Peace and Conflict. I was based at the ESOC project at Princeton University and at the Peace Research Institute Oslo as a visiting researcher. Currently I am a research associate at the Chair of International Relations, University of Mannheim.

My research focuses on intra-state conflict, with a particular emphasis on counterinsurgency and peacekeeping effectiveness, and the effect of local conflict dynamics on inequalities. I take a special interest in quantitative methods, and have been teaching a postgraduate seminar on advanced statistics since my first year of PhD. In 2019, I received the Essex Excellence in Education teaching award.
