Poli Sci prof., Global Governance, Global financial relations, money laundering, illicit markets, and comparative welfare state stuff. Also music, food, and the abysmal state of North Carolina politics. #firstgen

NCSU faculty member here. Our libraries are amazing! Thanks for supporting them (and thus our students and faculty).
