Hello, and welcome to my website! I am a Ph.D. student in Politics and International Affairs at the University of South Florida's School of Interdisciplinary Global Studies. My research interests focus on international relations, global security, great power cyber competition, comparative authoritarianism, and Ibero-America. 

Before my academic journey, I spent 16 years in the technology sector, with my most recent position as a senior quality engineering manager at a software company. I also served on active duty in the United States Army for three years.
