Career Summary
I am interested in the evolution of the U.S. intelligence community and the role it plays in U.S. foreign policy. Prior to coming to Purdue, I was an analyst at the CIA, where I looked primarily at political and security issues in South Asia. As a senior analyst, I was deeply involved in all stages of the intelligence process, from collection to providing policymakers with finished intelligence.
