I'm a DPhil (PhD) Candidate in Politics, researching resistance transformation and the trajectories of civil resistance campaigns. My research centres on mechanisms of failure, specifically the interaction between state repression and movement escalation.

I hold an MPhil in Comparative Government from Lady Margaret Hall, University of Oxford, and a BA in International Relations and Economics from Jacobs University in Germany.
