Profile

My research sits at the intersection of political behavior, political psychology, and political representation, focusing on the electoral link between citizens and politicians. My previous work has examined how partisanship shapes citizens’ ability to hold politicians accountable and the extent to which politicians can influence public opinion. Currently, I am exploring how politicians understand and anticipate voter behavior.

In my teaching, I aim to connect theoretical insights with real-world challenges in democratic governance. I teach courses on public opinion, political behavior, and representation, often incorporating contemporary case studies to engage students in critical discussions about the dynamics of politics and policymaking.
