Bio

In Fall 2026, I will be a Lecturer in the Department of Government at Harvard University, from which I received my Ph.D. this past May. I am currently a J.D. candidate at Harvard Law School, where I serve as the Director of Harvard Journal of Law & Public Policy: Per Curiam. My work is primarily on private law, alongside which I am working on my book project on the development of just war thought in the High Middle Ages. My article, “Papal Jurisdiction and War as Judgment under the ius gentium: Raphael Fulgosius on Dig. 1.1.5," has been published in the Journal of the History of International Law / Revue d’histoire du droit international; it received the 2025 Irving Oberman Memorial Award in Legal History and was a finalist for the Brown Award for Excellence in Legal Writing. I have been invited to present my work at the Mississippi College School of Law in Fall 2026.

In 2027–28, I will clerk for the Hon. Andrew L. Brasher on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit.

I graduated with my A.B. from Harvard College (summa cum laude, Phi Beta Kappa (Junior 24)), where I received the James Gordon Bennett Prize, the Mather Scholar-Citizen Award, and the Charles Joseph Bonaparte Scholarship. I was also a John Harvard Scholar.

At Harvard, I also serve as a Concentration Adviser in the Department of Government and as a Non-Resident Tutor in Cabot House.
