About Me
I am a Max Weber Fellow at the European University Institute in Florence, Italy. I received my Ph.D. in Political Science from Columbia University in 2021. I am a political theorist working on the historical and normative foundations of territorial states, with interests in the history of political thought, territorial rights, and political myth. My current book project, titled The Territorial Revolution in Political Thought: Building Bordered States from Pufendorf to Vattel, examines the transformation of European theories of territory from patrimonial lands to national collective property. My work has been published in Global Intellectual History.
I have experience teaching the history of political thought with Columbia University's Core Curriculum, introductory courses to political theory, international relations, and justice.
