More about me
My research hasĀ been published or is forthcomingĀ in over 30 journals or volumes, including theĀ American Journal of Political Science, theĀ British Journal of Political Science, theĀ Journal of Politics,Ā Nature Human Behavior,Ā Political Analysis, and theĀ Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. This work has received coverage by media such as National Public Radio'sĀ All Things Considered,Ā The Asahi Shimbun,Ā The Atlantic,Ā The Economist,Ā The Huffington Post,Ā The Washington Post, andĀ Yahoo! News.
In addition to my primary appointment in the Department of Government at Dartmouth, I am affiliate faculty in the Department of Eastern European, Eurasian, and Russian Studies, the Department of Sociology, the Program in Social Science, the Program in Women's, Gender, & Sexuality Studies, and the Arthur L. Irving Institute. I am also a non-residential Senior Fellow at the Tokyo Foundation for Policy Research.
Before attending graduate school, I worked as a congressional staffer, policy researcher, photojournalist, and English teacher in Belarus, among manyĀ other things. My experiences taught me a great deal about how people interact with each other, build power, and use it with others; these experiences have guided many of my research interests and projects over the years.
When not working, I enjoy middle-class values and activities, such as cooking, photography, and spending time with my family and friends.
I also like traveling throughout JapanĀ and exploring colleges and universities worldwide. š
