I’m an Assistant Professor in the Department of International Relations and International Organization (IRIO) at the University of Groningen — a world-class university of 30,0000 students in the northern Netherlands. My main responsibilities include coordination of the bachelor’s program, as well as coordination of the required second-year course, the International Political Economy of Monetary Relations. I’ve also held Professorial Lecturer appointments at American University’s School of International Service (SIS) and the Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS), where I taught a wide range of Economics and Political Science courses to both graduates and undergraduates studying International Relations.
