Welcome! I am a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Niehaus Center for Globalization and Governance at Princeton University. I received my PhD from the University of California, Los Angeles in 2019.

My research concerns the role of institutions in newly transitioned democracies, particularly in Latin America.  ​In my dissertation, I consider compliance outcomes with rulings of the Inter-American Court of Human Rights. In particular, I focus on non-compliance resulting from capacity constraints and the domestic political incentives to avoid confronting the abuses of past military dictatorships. Beyond my work on compliance, I am also interested in the consequences of institutional and legal designs on state behavior.

I received my B.A. from the University of Virginia in 2013, where I majored in Classics and Political Philosophy, Policy, and Law.
