I am an assistant professor of Political Science and International Studies at Washington College. My research highlights the tensions between peacebuilding, development, and security in global governance initiatives to address women's needs in the Global South, specifically the UN Security Council resolutions on Women, Peace, and Security. I teach in the areas of international organizations, international political economy, gender, peace and conflict, African politics, global environmental politics, and humanitarianism.

I am also the Academic Network Coordinator of the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom (WILPF).
