I’m a scholar, writer, and editor. I received my PhD in History from the University of California, San Diego, in June 2024, and am currently a postdoctoral fellow at the Orient Institut Beirut.
I’m broadly interested in the histories of planning, development, and culture, and political economy of urban and rural spaces across the modern middle east and the mediterranean.
My dissertation focuses on state modernization, planning, and development in rural Lebanon during the 1960s.
My PhD project has received generous financial support from a number of organizations and programs, including the Fulbright Hays Doctoral Dissertation Research Abroad Program, Chateaubriand Fellowship Program, UCSD Department of History, UCSD Institute of Arts and Humanities, and UCSD International Institute.
I have written for several American and Arab magazines and journals, you can find them here.
