Journalism

Prior to beginning my academic career, I worked as a Reporter at Politico, an Editorial Researcher at Politico Magazine, and a Reporter and Henry Luce Scholar at The Caravan. Additionally, I wrote freelance articles for publications including the New York Times, the Pacific Standard, and In Asia.

For examples of my journalistic and opinion writing, see:

• The Pacific Standard: “Understanding India’s Case for Colonial Reparations”

• POLITICO: (authored over 450 articles) see, for example, “Hillary Clinton’s Forgotten Death Penalty Shift,” “Mike Pence Reaps the Whirlwind”

• POLITICO Magazine: “The Brit Who Crashed CPAC,” “The Word Obama Can’t Bring Himself to Say,” “Obama’s Tarnished Saint,” “Who’s Afraid of Narendra Modi?”

• The New York Times: “The Skate Escape”

• The Caravan: “How Flipkart Dodged India’s E-Commerce Laws,” “The Long Shot,” “The Last Laugh,” “Bark to the Future,”

• DNA India (Delhi Edition): “An American’s Quest to Find Good Coffee in Delhi” (Humor)

• In Asia: “Will India’s Telangana Residents Benefit from Statehood?”

• The Global Post (republished on PRI): “Are Human Rights Negotiable in Public-Private Partnerships?”

• The Duck of Minerva: "A Gilded Age of Social Science: Big Data Governance, Neopositivist Social Science and Covid-19"
