I'm offering
I am a lecturer at the University of Essex. I have several years' experience as a teacher, working as a lecturer at two British universities and a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Warwick.
I have been blogging for several years. Much of my work can be found on various blogs hosted by my alma mater, the London School of Economics. I have also written for Open Democracy and the Political Science Association. I contribute occasional reviews to the LSE Review of Books.
I am grateful for whatever consideration you might choose to afford my submission.
