He previously held postdoctoral and predoctoral research positions at UC San Diego’s School of Global Policy and Strategy (2020–2022). His research bridges political methodology and comparative politics, focusing on statistical tools for policy spillover effects, research transparency, and social learning under non-democratic regimes. He also explores electoral dynamics in contentious political contexts.

He withdrew voluntarily from a concurrent PhD in Economics at the University of Wisconsin-Madison (2014–2015). His research interests emphasize causal inference methodologies and their application to understanding political phenomena in non-democratic settings. He develops statistical techniques to address interference in temporal, spatial, and networked data, while also studying how protests and international tensions impact political systems and scientific collaboration.
