Welcome!
I'm Professor of International and Cyber Security at the Hertie School in Berlin. Previously, I was Assistant Professor of International Relations at the University of Zurich, and postdoctoral research fellow at the Belfer Center and the Women and Public Policy Program in the Harvard Kennedy School. Prior to that I worked at the Chair for Political Science IV at the University of Mannheim, where I obtained my PhD.
My research focuses on political violence, state repression and the measurement of human rights. My book project theoretically and empirically investigates how governments use cyber controls to inform their strategies of violent repression. The book is based on my dissertation, which was awarded the 2014-2016 Walter Isard Dissertation Award (given every two years by the Peace Science Society International), and the Deutscher Studienpreis 2015 (German Dissertation Prize) for the Social Sciences.
My work has been covered by various news outlets and is accepted or appears in the American Journal of Political Science, Journal of Politics, Journal of Conflict Resolution, Journal of Peace Research, Nature Human Behavior, Journal of Human Rights, and at Oxford University Press. I am also an Associate Editor at the Journal of Peace Research.
Since 2009, I have been working for the Human Rights Data Analysis Group. Read our UN report on the documented death toll in Syria here, and our report on the number of killings in Syrian detention centers here. I've also worked with Amnesty International on investigating the human rights costs on Internet shutdowns.
My pronouns are she/her.
