Welcome to my website! I am lecturer in the Department of Political Science and International Studies at the University of Birmingham (UK). I previously taught international relations at Nazarbayev University in Astana, Kazakhstan. I received my Ph.D. in Political Science from the University of Georgia. 

My research examines regional integration processes and the impact of economic interdependence on domestic security and conflict. A list of my publish works, manuscripts under review, and working papers can be found on my research page,  vita, and here.

My teaching page provides a list of courses I am currently teaching and previously taught.
