Welcome to my website!

I am a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Political Science at the University of North Texas (UNT). I study international relations and comparative politics.

My research interests focus on foreign policy analysis, political economy, and security studies. I examine how leaders shape and respond to economic challenges, the strategic role of public diplomacy during conflicts, and the broader economic influence of foreign capital in developing countries.
