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.
My research focuses on the intersection of technology and security, as well as the measurement of political violence. My recently published book is titled Repression in the Digital Age: Surveillance, Censorship, and the Dynamics of State Violence and theoretically and empirically investigates how governments use cyber controls to support their strategies of violent repression. The book received the 2024 Goldsmith Book Prize, awarded by the Harvard Kennedy School Shorenstein Center on Media, Politics, and Public Policy.
My work has been covered by various news outlets and has appeared in the American Journal of Political Science, Journal of Politics, Journal of Conflict Resolution, Journal of Peace Research, Nature Human Behavior, 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.
