About

I am a Lecturer in Political Economy at the Department of Political Economy at King's College London and serve as the Academic Convenor of the ECPR Methods School as well as the Standing Group on Analytical Politics and Public Choice. My main research interests are in the fields of Political Economy and Political Science. I focus on understanding the role of institutions and their impact on strategic interactions in politics. Interest representation and lobbying, legislative politics, as well as bargaining and political decision-making are my main topical focus. I emphasize a strong connection of formal theory and empirical analysis.
