Welcome! I am a Lecturer (Assistant Professor) of International Relations of the Americas at University College London. My research explores how smaller states navigate great power competition, with an empirical focus on Latin American strategies for US-China competition. I teach courses on Latin American international relations and foreign policies.

I was previously a Postdoctoral Research Associate at the Princeton University Program in Latin American Studies and a Hans J. Morgenthau Fellow at the Notre Dame International Security Center. I completed my Ph.D. in Political Science at Boston University in Summer 2025.
