Research Interests:

I’m interested in modern Britain and Ireland and their relationship in a colonial and imperial context.  The movement of people, resources, and ideas in the broader Atlantic community is a major part of my interest in that relationship.  I also study collective mobilization and paramilitary or clandestine organizations that used violence or the threat of violence as a negotiating tool.
