Research Summary

Interested in using critical rhetoric as a theoretical and methodological lens to understand political discourse and rhetoric of war. I am particularly intrigued by the multiple rhetorical strategies and tactics operationalized by political players (both state and nonstate actors) to discursively construct themselves and their opponents during times of political crises.
