I am a Lecturer at Harvard University in the Social Studies program. I was previously Visiting Assistant Professor of Political Science at Boston University, teaching ancient and contemporary political theory. I received my Ph.D. in political theory from Johns Hopkins University in June 2022.
I examine the factors that facilitate or frustrate responsiveness to large-scale structural injustices. My current manuscript examines this problem in relation to climate change. Titled Counterstructures: Rethinking Collective Action Against Climate Injustice, the book develops a novel theory of collective action that combines repertoires of disruptive and prefigurative democracy.
My articles on collective action, ecology, capitalism, and structural injustice have appeared in the American Political Science Review (2026), Journal of Social Philosophy (2023), and Emancipations: A Journal of Critical Social Analysis (2022). I have published public-facing writing in Jacobin (on climate famines) and The Minnesota Reformer (on ICE and the “guarantee clause” of the US Constitution). In 2021, I was a finalist for the Johns Hopkins University Excellence in Teaching Award.
