I study comparative political economy and political development, with a particular focus on colonial state-building in the Middle East. Before starting graduate school, I worked as a researcher for the University of Chicago’s Law and Economics group and with the UN’s Department of Peace Operation’s Office of Rule of Law and Security Institutions. In 2019, I graduated a Bachelor’s with honors in Political Science as well as a minor in Mathematical and Computational Sciences from Stanford University.
