Welcome!
​
I am an Adjunct Faculty Member and Research Affiliate at the University of Colorado, Boulder with the Department of Political Science and Arts & Sciences Honors Program. I received my PhD  in Political Science from the University of Pittsburgh.

​My research interests focus on voters, political parties, and the linkage between the two in multi-level polities. My dissertation focuses on the increasingly inter-connected nature of party politics and the consequences of these transnational political forces on voter attitudes and perceptions about their parties. I also have existing work on political participation and vote choice in multi-level contests.  My work has been published in ​British Journal of Political Science, European Union Politics​, Journal of Elections, Public Opinion, and Parties (JEPOP), Party Politics, and West European Politics.

My teaching interests include comparative politics, parties, elections, and political behavior as well as area studies courses on East and West Europe and the European Union.
