Welcome! I'm an assistant professor of political science at Yale University. My research explores the political psychology of religion and repression in the Middle East. I use a variety of survey, voting, archival, and interview evidence in my work, and incorporate a mixture of methodologies to analyze these data.
I received my doctorate in politics from Princeton University and was previously a postdoctoral research fellow with the Middle East Initiative at Harvard Kennedy School of Government's Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs. I also hold a B.A. in Arabic and an M.A. in Arab Studies, both from Georgetown University.
Note to Yale graduate and undergraduate students: I will be taking a semester of teaching relief for child rearing (TRC) in fall 2019 and junior faculty leave during calendar year 2020. During this time, I won't be teaching but am available for office hours and advising.
