Teaching

I am currently an Adjunct Professor of Political Science at Saint Joseph’s University. In this role, I teach “Public Policy” and “Applied Research: Mixed Methods in Political Inquiry,” a graduate-level research methods seminar designed to introduce graduate students in public policy to the primary research methodologies employed by political scientists. I also serve as the faculty adviser for students completing internships through the “Philadelphia Area Internship” experiential learning course.

Previously, I served as an instructor at George Washington University, where I taught “Introduction to International Politics” (Summer 2022) and “How Democracies Die” (Fall 2022), a Dean’s Seminar designed for first-year students to introduce them to core theories and concepts from comparative politics and the study of regime change.

I am also able to teach courses in the following areas:

  • Nations and Nationalism
  • Politics of Immigration
  • European Integration
  • International Organizations
  • Public Opinion
  • Politics and Emotions
  • Surveys and Experiments
  • Quantitative Text Analysis

Previously, I worked as a Writing in the Disciplines Teaching Assistant at George Washington University in the following courses: International Organizations (Fall 2018, Spring 2021, Fall 2021), Introduction to Comparative Politics (Spring 2020), and Comparative Politics of the Middle East (Fall 2020). I also served as a Graduate Teaching Assistant for Introduction to International Politics (Fall 2017, Spring 2018, Fall 2018). My work included guiding discussion sections, delivering guest lectures, facilitating peer review, and assessing student writing.
