Global Governance
Environmental Politics
Expertise and Technology
I am a PhD Candidate in Political Science at the George Washington University.
​
My dissertation investigates the politics of global environmental governance. Using a combination of genealogical and network analyses, the dissertation uncovers how credibility capitalism excludes the Global South and other marginalized standpoints from climate science and showcases its negative repercussions.
I also have side projects on the curse of centrality, the symbolic interactionist micro-foundations in strategic ambiguity, and the problem of interpretive ambiguity for rhetorical entrapment.
Prior to coming to GWU, I received my MA in International Affairs from Columbia University and my BA from Thammasat University. I am the recipient of the Anandamahidol Foundation Scholarship under H.M. the King of Thailand (2015-2021).
