Welcome!I am a Lecturer (Assistant Professor) in the Department of Government at the University of Essex. I received my PhD from the Department of Political Science at the University of California, Davis. My primary field of study is Comparative Politics with a focus on voting behavior, election strategies of political parties, political representation, and political institutions. My current research agenda focuses on the empirical implications of spatial models of parties' electoral strategies, with a specific focus on parties' issue-emphasis strategies. I also have a special interest in the politics of Israel and I am the PI for the Israeli Chapel Hill Expert Survey. My work has been published in the British Journal of Political Science, Electoral Studies, European Journal of Political Research, Party Politics, Political Behavior, and others.
