My research focuses on local responses to state failure in sub-Saharan 
Africa.  My dissertation and a forthcoming book chapter examine the role 
of civil society organizations in social service provision in the eastern 
Democratic Republic of Congo.  

I am also involved in a project on the relationship between pirates and 
local governance structures in Puntland and central Somalia.  

At Morehouse, I teach African politics, conflict & conflict resolution, and
international organizations.
