About Me
Currently offering my services in the culture and education sectors as I've been constantly gravitating towards both over the past 15 years. It seems I can't get enough of panicky students, restless audiences and impossible deadlines. One has to rise to one or two challenges !
Based in Beirut, I'd be ready to jump on a plane for a short-term mission if required and happy to answer your questions if you think I could be the right fit for the position.

Focusing on the Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) in Northern Ireland and the Lebanese Forces (LF) in Lebanon, my dissertation is devoted to the evolution of ultra-communitarian parties within the frame of consociationalism. This work explores the notions of compromises and resistance while analyzing the interaction between politics and religion.
