Welcome to my website! I am a Ph.D. Candidate in Political Science at Syracuse University’s Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs where I study legislative politics in Latin America. My dissertation examines the proposal and approval of universalistic policies in countries where many political parties are nonprogrammatic. In particular, I focus on Brazil and Mexico. I hold a M.A. in Political Science from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. At UNC-Chapel Hill, I was also a Rotary Peace Fellow at the Duke-UNC Rotary Peace Center. On this site, you can learn about my research, my teaching experience, and my professional background. Please feel free to contact me with any questions.
