Biography

Biography

I joined the department in Fall 2023. My research interests are in political theory, public law, constitutional design, jurisprudence and comparative legal systems with a focus on judicial review. 

I am completing my Ph.D. from Syracuse University, where my dissertation explores 'strong form' judicial review in common law countries. I have a JD from Georgetown University Law Center, as well as LL.Ms from the universities of London, Pennsylvania and Chicago.
