Ohio State is in the process of revising websites and program materials to accurately reflect compliance with the law. While this work occurs, language referencing protected class status or other activities prohibited by Ohio Senate Bill 1 may still appear in some places. However, all programs and activities are being administered in compliance with federal and state law.

Biography

I am a Professor of Political Science at Ohio State University. I completed a PhD in Political Science at Stanford University (2013) and a BA in Biology from Appalachian State University (2005).

My research focuses on the ways in which identity and culture – defined by nationality, ethnicity, race, and gender – influence political behavior, and how political processes affect identity change, primarily in Africa and among the African diaspora.

I am a co-organizer of the Working Group in African Political Economy (WGAPE) and a co-editor of African Affairs.
