Why are you passionate about this field?
“Politics touches nearly every aspect of our lives, so the topics our scholars study are both incredibly varied and endlessly interesting! I love helping people find just the right information to move their research forward. It’s enormously gratifying to see students come into my office feeling bewildered about where to start their research and have them leave feeling confident and excited about working with the resources we’ve found.”
