I am a PhD student at the Department of Political and Social Sciences at the European University Institute (Florence, Italy). Prior to joining the EUI, I received an MA in Political Science from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 2025, and an MSc in European and International Public Policy from the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) in 2023. I also hold a BA in Politics with Economics from Loughborough University.

My research focuses on political behaviour, public opinion, and political parties from a comparative perspective, and to a lesser degree, political methodology. I am especially interested in social media communication, as well as network structures that may uncover latent attitudes and behaviours.

I also worked as Research Assistant at the Chapel Hill Expert Survey (CHES) and as Teaching Assistant for Introduction to Comparative Politics at UNC.

Other interests and hobbies of mine are:

• Reading (my Goodreads)
• Chess (let's play!)
• Running and nature
