About Me

My research centers on insurgency and violent extremism and the efforts of states and the international community to mitigate them through peacekeeping, disarmament demobilization and reintegration, building social capital and teaching tolerance and non-violence. My teaching includes core courses in  international politics, formal models of international politics and civil war and international intervention.
