Hi, I’m Brandon

Professional headshot of a young man with glasses, wearing a white shirt, gray tie, and gray sweater, smiling against a plain gray background.

I am a Ph.D. student in the Department of Political Science at Boston University

I study the political economy of security, finance, and emerging technology. Currently, my research looks at financial market actors' conditional support for peace, and the conditions of state-sponsored guarantees to market actors during times of uncertainity.

I am currently an affiliate with the Berkman Klein Center for Internet and Society at Harvard University and an early career scholar with Northeastern's Transnational Political Networks project.

My work has been supported by the Department of Political Science and the Center for Innovation in Social Science (CISS) at Boston University, the Berkman Klein Center for Internet and Society at Harvard University, and jointly by the Center for International Affairs and World Cultures (CIWAC) of Northeastern University and the Carnegie Corporation of New York.
