Hello and welcome to my website.  My research and teaching interests are in the areas of comparative politics, political economy and development, and democratization with a regional emphasis in Latin America.  I am also interested in the study of other so-called "Third World" regions and I have incorporated them in some of the courses I have taught (e.g., sub-Saharan Africa and southeast Asia).  I have included here my C.V., sample syllabi and hand-outs for the courses I have taught, a brief description of the projects I am working on, and my dissertation document.  Feel free to take a look and please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions, concerns, or comments about any information that you find in this website.

Thank you for visiting!
