About Me

Hello! Thank you for visiting my website. I am a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the University of Oxford. I was previously a Dissertation Fellow and Instructor of Record at Texas A&M University. I received my PhD in Political Science from Texas A&M University in August 2024.

My research primarily focuses on political institutions, legislative politics, executive politics, coalition governance, representation, and constitutions. My central research agenda investigates how institutional design shapes executive-legislative dynamics and electoral and policy outcomes. In my projects, I typically cover the major European (and some non-European) parliamentary democracies and the U.S. My approach to the study of political science is mainly quantitative, integrated with qualitative evidence.

My work has been published or is forthcoming in the The Journal of Politics, the European Political Science Review, Social Science Quarterly, and Parliamentary Affairs, among other outlets.
