University of Pennsylvania .
I am a professor at the political science department at the University of Pennsylvania . My research is in applied political economy, with a substantive focus on governance, migration and forced displacement, human trafficking, and conflict processes, (mostly) in the context of developing countries.
I am the founder and co-director of Penn’s Development Research Initiative (PDRI-DevLab). Launched in 2020, PDRI-DevLab brings together faculty and graduate students from across Penn whose research seeks to identify solutions to the challenges facing low- and middle-income countries. PDRI seeks to foster impactful international development research by harnessing the expertise of its affiliates from various disciplines and utilizing diverse methodological approaches.
