My doctoral thesis proposed that the complexity of international politics is something that needs to be embraced and not sidelined.This is the case whether the international politics in question was in ancient times or the twenty-first century. The complexity of international politics, not anarchy, needs to be operationalized as the foundational assumption of international relations theory, in order to build international relations theorizing on a more appropriate basis that can be applied more fruitfully in the descriptions and explanations of empirical international relations analyses.

      I served in various roles from my arrival at CEFAM as a Professor of International Politics in 2009 until I left the school in 2014. I gained experience in delivering college level classes, developed research activities and presented original research at events worldwide, was invited to guest lecture or keynote major conferences in education and international politics in Europe, Asia, and the Americas, and I was responsible for the operations and management of multiple graduate programs in international business, and - in my final post - the management of faculty across both undergraduate and graduate programs.Director of Faculty and MBA Programs: 2014Director of Graduate Studies: 2012-2014Assistant Dean: 2011-2012Research Coordinator: 2010-2011Professor of International Politics: 2009-2010Having arrived at CEFAM with a research background in complex systems and after using my time in the school to develop my knowledge of communications - in the classroom and in writing - I was ready for a new challenge that would allow me to continue to develop this skill set. When the opportunity to join DOZ as their Content Manager emerged, I was ready to make the move into a new career. Show less

    • DOZ

      Jan 2015 - Jul 2016
      Content Manager

      I served as the Content Manager at DOZ. I was responsible for the day-to-day management of our blog, the creation of original content, premium content (ebooks, white papers, grant applications), and the recruitment and promotion of guest posts and articles. I succeeded in tripling our traffic year-on-year between 2015 and 2016 after doubling the traffic between 2014 and 2015. I have written hundreds of articles for DOZ, for other sites, and copy for the DOZ platform and related products.With a background in complex systems and significant experience writing and communicating big ideas for DOZ, I was looking for opportunities to tell new stories in a bigger company that still embraced the startup culture. I was lucky to find my way to The CoSMo Company in mid-2016 and take on a new role in thought leadership. Show less
