I am an assistant professor and program coordinator for the international politics cohort at George Washington University's Women's Leadership Program. I was previously a faculty fellow at NYU's Center for European and Mediterranean Studies and a fellow at the Saltzman Institute for War and Peace at Columbia University. I earned my Ph.D. in political science from Columbia University in 2017.

I research nationalism, populism, international security, democratization and de-democratization, and political narratives with a regional focus on Europe and Israel.
  
I teach courses on European politics, nationalism, social movements and political protest, Mediterranean politics, and introductory courses in comparative politics and international relations. 

In addition to my scholarship, I participate in policy debates in my blog, and other publications such as War on the Rocks, Duck of Minerva, and the LSE USA blog. In addition my work has been featured in the New York Times and Vox.
