Welcome to my webpage! I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Political Science at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem.  I study comparative politics in general and electoral politics in particular.  My current research focuses on the relationship between electoral districts and representation, as well as on coalition governments.  In past research projects I examined how power-sharing mechanisms affect voter choice.  I also studied turnout and multilevel explanations in comparative politics.  I teach classes on comparative politics, electoral politics, political institutions, and the European Union.
