I am an Associate Professor of Diplomacy & World Affairs at Occidental College where I teach, research and write about global political economy and its relationship to politics and policymaking in low/middle-income countries.
My research and commentary have appeared in Communist and Post-Communist Studies, Democratization, Europe-Asia Studies, Review of International Political Economy, The Moscow Times, and other publications. My book about the politics of financial internationalization of the Russian economy is currently under contract with Cornell University Press.
I received a doctorate in Government from Cornell University in 2015. Before coming to Oxy, I spent five memorable years in the Department of Political Science at Wellesley College. I have also held appointments at the Cornell-in-Washington Program, the Harriman Institute at Columbia University, and the Monterey Institute for International Studies. I am a native of Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan, where I had the great fortune to attend the Physics and Mathematics Lyceum #61.
