Research Interests
My initial interests and research dealt with 19th and 20th century Russian history and their relationship with Asia and the Middle East, but it has since broadened to include the Atlantic world from the 16th century to the present. Transnational history and intercultural transfers across the Atlantic Ocean have been my primary focal points as a Ph.D. student, but I have also studied various aspects of the African Diaspora and revolutions and their transformations during my course work as well. Studying the philosophy of history has also been a continuous interest of mine throughout my academic career.
