Welcome.

I am an assistant professor of Political Science at the University of Mississippi where I focus on sovereign debt, foreign aid, and international organizations. My work is published or forthcoming in International Studies Quarterly, The Review of International Organizations, International Interactions and Global Studies Quarterly. My work on Chinese debt restructuring has also been featured on the Clauses & Controversies podcast.

I am also enthusiastic about teaching and applying evidence-based pedagogical techniques in support of an engaged and inclusive classroom. My work on the scholarship of teaching and learning (SoTL) has been published in several pedagogical journals.

I received my Ph.D. from the University of California, San Diego in 2019 and I proudly hold a B.A. from the College of Wooster in Wooster, Ohio. Please feel free to contact me at leferry@olemiss.edu
