I am an Associate Professor of Law at Capital University Law School, where I teach Property, Business Associations, and Law & Technology. I also teach Global Digital Law & Politics at Harvard Summer School. I have previously held research affiliations with the Institute for Global Law & Policy at Harvard Law School, Harvard Kennedy School, Columbia Law School, and Sciences Po Law School.

My research is at the intersection of international law, technology, and infrastructure. Drawing on history, political economy, and science and technology studies (STS), I examine how technical and material systems reshape sovereignty, power, and global legal order.

My book, Cable Empires (Cambridge University Press), is a history of communications infrastructure, empire, and the making of international law. I am also working on projects on AI and compute governance, data centers, submarine cables and public-private ordering, and infrastructural inequalities in the digital economy.

My work has been published in the Indiana Journal of Global Legal Studies, Heidelberg Journal of International Law, Brooklyn Journal of International Law, Denver Journal of International Law and Policy, Harvard International Law Journal Online, the European Journal of Legal Studies, Lawfare, and juridikum.

From 2020 to 2026, I served as Coordinator of the European Society of International Law's Interest Group on International Law and Technology. Prior to entering legal academia, I practiced law in the areas of financial transactions and data privacy. I hold a PhD in Law & Institutions from the University of Turin and a JD from the University of California College of the Law, San Francisco.

I welcome invitations for lectures and workshops. Please feel free to get in touch.
