A new website is coming!Welcome to my very temporary, barebones site.
I'm a PhD candidate in political science at the University of British Columbia (I'll be defending my dissertation this spring!), a writer, and a political commentator. In the coming weeks, I'll be launching a new website, redesigned for some of the new projects I'm working on, including a book on why we make bad political decisions and how we can make better ones. In the meantime, you can contact me by e-mail or on Twitter. If you're so inclined, you can also take a look at two of my recent pieces and a few of my most recent interviews. |
If you're curious about what I research, check out this hour-long radio feature about my work from CBC Ideas: Too Dumb For Democracy (originally aired in 2014)
