Welcome

Hello! I am a Ph.D. Candidate in the Department of Political Science at Northwestern University, where I am also a Graduate Fellow at the Center for Legal Studies. I previously earned a B.A. from Pomona College, a J.D. from Cornell Law School, and an M.A. from Northwestern University.

My work has appeared in the Cornell Law Review and International Affairs. Drawing upon my interdisciplinary background, I conduct empirical research at the intersection of law and politics. My dissertation focuses on why countries strengthen their trade secret rights.
