Background
I am a political scientist specializing in American politics. I earned my Ph.D. from Stony Brook University and currently teach at the University of Florida. In general, I apply theories from political economy to questions relating to how political institutions structure the behavior of political organizations throughout the political process.
Much of my current research focuses on the behavior of organized interests. In particular, I study the transmission of information, the creation of campaign finance networks, and the structure of group networks.
Areas of Interest/Research
Campaign Finance, Interest Group Politics, Social Network Analysis
