I recently graduated with an MA in Security Studies at George Washington University with a concentration in transnational security. I am also a research manager at Exiger Diligence. I completed my undergraduate degree in Government, Diplomacy, and Strategy with a specialization in International Affairs. Between both programs, I've studied a range of courses in Middle Eastern politics and society, foreign policy, counter-terrorism, international law, conflict resolution, international political economy, U.S. national security, and cyber threats. I have worked in a range of roles at a counter-terrorism research institute and a non-profit.
