I am an Assistant Professor of Political Science at Seton Hall University. I received my Ph.D. in Political Science from the University of Notre Dame in 2022. I am a scholar of Religion and Politics with a focus on ultra-nationalism and nativism in the United States and Europe. My book project explores historic explanations for the contemporary use of religious rhetoric by nativist parties in Central Europe. My published work has appeared in Party Politics, Politics, Groups, and Identities, Nationalities Papers, and Politics and Religion, .
Previously, I was a Faculty Fellow at New York University’s Center for European and Mediterranean Studies between 2022 and 2025. I have a Masters in Law and Diplomacy from the Fletcher School in 2016 at Tufts University and I received my BA in Medieval Studies and History from the University of Chicago in 2008. Prior to Notre Dame, I worked as Director of Communications for a Chicago city councilman and on campaigns in the Chicagoland area.
