As an educator in the social sciences and a scholar of regime change, civil society, and political institutions, I want students to develop a critical understanding of contemporary political phenomena. By emphasizing the significance of historical context, I also aim to foster a deeper understanding of the lasting impact of historical events on contemporary political realities. By promoting critical thinking and offering a comprehensive analytical framework, I empower students to navigate and engage with the intricacies of the modern political landscape. 
 
I am comfortable teaching across several subfields and methodological approaches.
