Welcome to my site.  私のサイトへようこそ。
I study political economy and political development.  I am currently an Assistant Professor at Hiroshima University where I teach econometrics and causal inference in the International Economic Development Program and the Graduate School of Innovation and Practice for Smart Society​.  

My research focuses on topics such as regime finance, state building, representative institutions, and political stability. My work has been published at journals such as Comparative Political Studies, Journal of Peace Research, International Studies Quarterly, Journal of International Development, Explorations in Economic History​, Journal of Historical Political Economy, and others. 

I was previously a Postdoctoral Fellow in Peace and Conflict Research in the Department of Sociology and Political Science at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (2023-2024).  Before I moved to Norway, I held a Japan Society for the Promotion of Science Postdoctoral Fellow (2021-2023) at the Graduate School of Information Sciences at Tohoku University in Sendai, Japan (with Masaaki Higashijima).  From 2020-2021, I was a Visiting Assistant Professor at Texas A&M University at Qatar.  I earned my PhD in Political Science from Texas A&M University, College Station, in August of 2020.  I attended the EITM Summer Institute at the University of Michigan in 2015.  I also hold an MPA in International Environmental Policy from the School of Public and Environmental Affairs at Indiana University.
