I’m a researcher in International Relations working on expertise, empire, and capitalism in the history and theory of international organisations. Currently I’m William Golding Junior Research Fellow at Brasenose College, University of Oxford. As postdoctoral Research Associate and Oxford Martin Fellow I work on the Changing Global Orders programme at the Oxford Martin School. I recently completed a DPhil in International Relations at Balliol College, University of Oxford. I have previously held teaching positions at Utrecht University (2022-23) and at Pembroke College, University of Oxford (2021-22).
My research, which has been funded by the UK Arts and Humanities Research Council and the German Academic Scholarship Foundation (Studienstiftung des deutschen Volkes), has won the ISA Barbara W. Tuchman Prize (2023), the ISA Prize for Best Graduate Paper in IR Theory (2023), the ISA-Northeast Fred Hartmann Award (2022), and the EISA Best Graduate Paper Award (2021).
I have also written for public outlets including TIME Magazine, Responsible Statecraft and The Conversation. I’m an Associate Member of the Centre for Global Knowledge Studies at the University of Cambridge and affiliated with the Security History Network at Utrecht University. Previously I convened the Seminar in the History of International Politics (SHIP) at the University of Oxford.
