Short description:
am a political scientist with over ten years of experience in research, especially on public-private cooperation, transnational climate action and global environmental politics. My research achievements include the development of methodologies to assess the performance of non-state initiatives in sustainable development and climate change; as well as furthering knowledge about local contexts for global governance solutions.
My goal is to contribute scientific knowledge for a greener, fairer and resilient future for all. To build links between research and practice, I facilitated dialogues on the role cities, regions, companies, and other groups in climate and sustainability governance; and I have also set up a platform on ‘Non-Economic Loss and Damage’, drawing attention to losses and damages that defy monetization, but still matter to people, especially in developing countries.

I am currently a researcher at the German Development Institute in Bonn, Germany working on the German Government-sponsored “Reducing Root Causes of Forced Displacement and Managing Migration” project. My research areas include international development, peace and conflict processes, and the politics of digital technology. I’ve recently worked with the International Security and Development Center, where I am an affiliated researcher, on an FAO-funded project on the political economy of food security and conflict, and was a Visiting Scholar at George Mason University’s School for Conflict Analysis and Resolution during the 2015-16 academic year. During my PhD I was a Fulbright Public Policy Fellow, advising the Samoan Ministry of Communications and Information Technology on disaster response and crisis prevention policy. Outside academia I have consulted for the World Bank, and worked with TechChange Inc and the U.S. Institute of Peace on peacebuilding, training and technology programs. I earned my PhD at the School for Conflict Analysis and Resolution at George Mason University in August 2016, and have a MA and BA from American University.
My peer-reviewed work has appeared in International Peacekeeping, International Studies Perspectives, Stability, and the Journal of Peacebuilding and Development.
