I have used the system to publish seven books and edited volumes, a host of academic articles and book chapters, and scores of op-eds and commentaries. My work has been published in outlets such as the Atlantic, Washington Post, Foreign Policy, Philadelphia Inquirer, and Detroit News, among others. I received my Ph.D. in political science from M.I.T. and left my post as Associate Professor at George Mason University in 2022 to live the entrepreneurial life. I live near the beach in North Carolina with my wife and two naughty dogs.view less
