About Me
I am a Core Lecturer in Contemporary Civilization in the Department of Political Science at Columbia University. Formerly I was a Max Weber Fellow at the European University Institute in Florence, Italy, where I contributed to the International Relations Theory Working Group. I received my Ph.D. in Political Science from Columbia University in 2021.
I am a political theorist and international relations scholar working on the historical and normative foundations of territorial states, with interests in the history of international political thought, state formation and territorial rights. My book project, The Territorial Revolution in Political Thought: Building Bordered States in Early International Law examines the transformation of European theories of territory from patrimonial lands to national collective property. My work has been published in Global Intellectual History and is forthcoming in History of Political Thought.
I am experienced teaching both political theory and international relations.
