About
I am a Political Science PhD candidate at the University of Michigan, specializing in Comparative Politics. I am also currently an Associate Researcher with the Group for Research on Ethnic Relations, Migration and Equality (GERME) at the Free University of Brussels (ULB). I study issues of religion, identity and representation, with a focus on how the state interacts with religious minorities in advanced democracies. My dissertation work examines state-mosque relations at the sub-national level in Belgium and Switzerland, focusing on both the decision-making of elected officials and the political behavior of religious elites.
