Thank you for your visit! I am a Postdoctoral Prize Research Fellow in Politics at Nuffield College, University of Oxford. I earned my PhD at the European University Institute (Florence) in July 2021.
I study how democracies generate norms against behavior associated with authoritarianism, how those norms are enforced, and how they erode.
My work has been published or accepted for publication in The Journal of Politics, Comparative Political Studies, and British Journal of Political Science, among other outlets. It has been awarded the ECPR Jean Blondel Prize for best thesis in politics and IR, the GESIS Klingemann Prize for best CSES scholarship, the EUI Linz-Rokkan Prize for best thesis in Political Sociology, and the Best Thesis Award from the Portuguese Political Science Association.
In this website you can find further information about my research agenda, a list of my publications, a description of my book project, and other activities I am interested in.
