I am an academic political scientist, working in the Government and International Affairs program at Virginia Tech's National Capital Region campus.  Following the completion of my doctorate at the University of Chicago, I was the Stanley Kaplan Visiting Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Political Science and the Leadership Studies Program at Williams College.  I am also a former Research Fellow in the International Security Program of the Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs at the Kennedy School of Government, Harvard University.  While earning my PhD, I served as preceptor in the Committee on International Relations at the University of Chicago. My research focuses on US national security politics.
