I am currently an assistant professor of political science at the Department of Contemporary Social Studies, College of Humanities and Social Sciences, Ibaraki University (in Japan).

My research interest is in political behavior, with a regional focus on the U.S. and East Asia. I am especially interested in topics including partisanship, ideology, political knowledge, disinformation, conspiracy theory, and research methods.

I obtained my PhD in Government from Georgetown University and MA and LLB from the University of Tokyo.
