Research: My doctoral research focuses on cross-cultural and historical variation in warfare intensity. To investigate this, I am building and analyzing comparative datasets coded from ethnographic and secondary historical sources on warfare, social structures, and subsistence practices for a global sample of past societies.
Other interests: Cultural evolution, comparative databases, phylogenetic methods
