Welcome! I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Political Science at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. Starting in August 2020, I will be an Associate Professor (with tenure) in the Department of Political Science at UNL. From 2014-2015, I was a Stanton Nuclear Security Postdoctoral Fellow in the International Security Program/Project on Managing the Atom at the Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs at the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University. 
               
​In July 2014, I received my Ph.D. in the Department of Political Science at the University of California, San Diego. I received my B.A. in the Department of Political Science at UC Berkeley (Go Bears!).
