About me
I am a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Political Science at the University of California, San Diego. I am a 2008-2009 Harvey Fellow (the Mustard Seed Foundation), and previously an Earl Warren Fellow at UCSD and a Fulbright Scholar.
Research Interests
My research and teaching interests center on international and comparative political economy, including the political economy of social and labor policy, politics of liberalization, and East Asian political economy. My dissertation, The Political Economy of Labor Market Institutions, examines the conditioning effects of the policy status quo on the preferences of business and labor, and the processes through which these preferences get translated into employment protection and unemployment insurance policies.
