I am currently serving as the Director of the Arms Trade & Militarization Program at the World Peace Foundation (WPF), drawing upon over a decade of expertise in grassroots organizing. Additionally, I hold the role of Co-Research Coordinator for the Corruption Tracker. Beyond my responsibilities in addressing the ramifications of the arms trade, I collaborate closely with Dr. Bridget Conley on the Mass Incarceration program at WPF. Currently, I am leading a collaborative research initiative with the Transformational Prison Project, focusing on assessing the impact of restorative justice during reentry. I also contribute to undergraduate education through teaching courses with the Tufts University Prison Initiative of Tisch College (TUPIT). Furthermore, I founded a project dedicated to providing books to incarcerated individuals in the Southern United States. To date, the project has donated and distributed 1,069 books! I hold an MSc in the Politics of Conflict, Rights, and Justice from SOAS, University of London, where my research was focused was on drone warfare in the MENA region.
