I am a political scientist interested in peace and conflict studies, race, ethnicity and immigration, democratic theory, and methodology. My regional specializations are Latin America and the Middle East. I use mixed methods.
Currently, I am a postdoctoral researcher in the Institute for the Study of International Migration at Georgetown University. Previously, I was a Banting Postdoctoral Fellow at the Penn Identity and Conflict Lab. During my graduate studies, I spent a year at Yale University MacMillan Center as a Fox International Fellow. I received my PhD in Political Science from the University of British Columbia, my MSc in Public Policy from the London School of Economics, and my BSc in Political Science and Administration from the Middle East Technical University in Ankara, Turkey.
