Academia

I have delivered engaging and thought-provoking material that address American Twentieth Century history, politics and foreign policy/Grand Strategy at British universities for the last ten years. I am currently an Associate Professor of International Political Studies at Richmond University (London) Where I have taught extensively in the areas of American politics and history, covering foreign and domestic policy, as well as international relations at undergraduate and postgraduate levels. Additionally I am delighted to announce that I have recently been awarded a prestigious Visiting Senior Research Fellowship at King’s College, London, where I will be researching U.S. Grand Strategy for a book on President Clinton’s role in shaping U.S. foreign policy.

I am a member of Chatham House’s U.S. Foreign Policy Discussion Board, External Examiner for the U.S. Politics & Foreign Policy postgraduate programmes at Birkbeck College and was a Visiting Fellowship at the University of North Dakota in 2010. I am delighted to present a selection of academic materials on this site. Please contact my agent to discuss potential lectures of public discussions.
