I am a Departmental Lecturer in Russian and East European Politics in the Department of Politics and International Relations (DPIR) and the Oxford School of Global and Area Studies (OSGA) at the University of Oxford. I also serve as the Deputy Director of the Grand Union Doctoral Training Partnership. I joined the DPIR in 2021 as a Departmental Lecturer in Politics (Qualitative Methods).
I completed my PhD in the Department of International Relations at the London School of Economics and Political Science in 2021. I hold a BA (High Honours) in International Studies (2015) and a MA in Political Science (2017) from the University of Saskatchewan. I also completed a Ukrainian language and culture programme at the Ukrainian Catholic University in Lviv, Ukraine in Spring 2014, the Institute for Qualitative and Multi-Method Research (IQMR) at Syracuse University in Syracuse, USA in June 2018, and the ECPR Winter School in Methods and Techniques at the University of Bamberg in Bamberg, Germany in February 2019.
Prior to pursuing my PhD, I served as a legislative intern and policy analyst with the Saskatchewan Legislature in Regina, Canada. I have volunteered extensively in Canada, the UK, and Ukraine, including with the non-governmental organisation, Help Us Help The Children, at four summer and one winter camps. I currently sit on the Board of Directors for the Ukrainian-Canadian charity, Stream of Hopes (Потічок Надій). I also served as an international electoral observer on three missions with CANADEM during Ukraine’s presidential and parliamentary elections in 2019.
