I am a Ph.D. student in the Department of Political Science at the University of Georgia, where my major field is international relations and my minor field is methodology. I am interested in explaining conflict behavior in civil wars & insurgencies, as well as political behavior more generally. I am also interested in measurement models, Bayesian data models, and spatial models. Check out my curriculum vitae if you are interested in my full academic history.

I am also the coordinator (and a member of) the Georgia Political Economy Group.

Much of my code for my research projects is hosted on GitHub. If you have comments/suggestions or would like to collaborate feel free to contact me. My co-authored projects are generally not hosted on GitHub.
