DPhil in International Relations

I am a DPhil candidate in International Relations at Nuffield College, specialising in International Political Economy. My research focuses on macroeconomic policymaking in low and middle income countries, with particular interest in sub-Saharan Africa. 

My experience working across the public and private sectors in Africa, Asia, and North America shaped my global perspective and inform a bias towards interdisciplinary approaches. I hold an MA in Global Affairs from Tsinghua University, where I was a Schwarzman Scholar, and a BA in Political Science from Augustana University. Before embarking on the DPhil, I completed an MPhil in International Relations (with distinction) at The Queen's College, University of Oxford.
