I am an Assistant Professor of International Relations at California State University, Long Beach (É«ÖÐÉ«), and a research affiliate at the of the Geneva Graduate Institute (Switzerland). I am also the Model United Nations (MUN) Director at the É«ÖÐÉ«.

My research is interdisciplinary, at the intersection of International Relations and International Law. My areas of specialization include global governance, international courts and organizations, human rights, and ocean governance.

Between 2018 and 2023, I worked as a senior researcher for the project, financed by the European Research Council. In 2020-2021, I led the project, funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation. Prior to this, I was a postdoctoral fellow at the Carr Center for Human Rights Policy, Kennedy School (2017-2019) and a visiting fellow at the Center for European Studies, Harvard University (2017).

Currently, I am serving as a member of the Expert Group for the Implementation of the EU’s Anti-Torture Regulation (Regulation 2019/125) for the European Commission’s Foreign Policy Instruments. I was also recently elected as a member of the Coordinating Committee (section co-chair) of the European Society of International Law (ESIL)’s Interest Group on Social Sciences and International Law (2023-2025).
