I am a political scientist interested in comparative politics, European politics, and political psychology. I received my PhD in political science from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in May 2014. Currently, I am a Lecturer at the University of Exeter in the UK. Previously, I was a Max Weber Postdoctoral Fellow at the European University Institute in Florence.

My work is published in the European Journal of Political Research, Political Psychology, European Union Politics, the​ Journal of Common Market Studies, and the Journal of European Public Policy. I am working on two lines of research. On the one hand, I examine how citizens form attitudes towards complex political issues such as European integration and international redistribution. On the other hand, I am interested in 'post factual politics': I analyze misperceptions that citizens hold about politics, the processes that generate them, and the conditions under which they can be corrected.
