Welcome! I am an Assistant Professor in the School of Public Affairs at American University and an Associate Professor of Political Science at Tel Aviv University (on leave). I received my Ph.D. in Political Science from University of Maryland and was a post-doctoral fellow at the Watson Institute for International & Public Affairs at Brown University.
My research investigates topics related to aid and conflict and lies at the intersection of international relations and comparative politics. My work is published in the American Political Science Review, the British Journal of Political Science, World Development, Journal of Conflict Resolution, the Journal of Peace Research, and International Studies Review, among others.Â
