Welcome to my website! I'm a PhD candidate (International Relations) currently on the job market (2019-2020) in the Department of Politics at the University of Virginia. My area of specialization is international political economy. I study American public opinion on trade and Foreign Direct Investment. My research focuses on how political elites' rhetoric on economic integration fuel backlash against globalization in the United States, with a specific focus on the interaction between the backlash and different aspects of global economic integration. Prior to UVA, I received my MA in College of Europe (Poland) and my BA from Bogazici University (Turkey).
