Biography:

I have served as the FTGS program chair for ISA 2007 and ISA 2008, and have been elected to serve as the program chair again for ISA 2009. I have also been the FTGS webmaster for three years, and served on the editorial board for the FTGS section of the ISA Compendium project, editing eight essays and writing one. I want to be the section chair because I deeply care about FTGS, and believe that I have something to offer in that position. As President-Elect of ISA West, and 3-year program chair for our section, I've learned a lot about ISA specifically and leadership generally. I am organized, enthusiastic, and I manage my time well. For those of you who do not know, my work centers around gender issues in international security. I have written Gender, Justice, and the Wars in Iraq (Lexington 2006) and (with Caron Gentry) Mothers, Monsters, Whores: Women's Violence in Global Politics (Zed 2007). My work has also been published in International Studies Quarterly, the International Feminist Journal of Politics, and International Studies Perspectives and is forthcoming in Politics and Gender, International Studies Review, International Politics, and International Relations. I am currently editing a special issue of Security Studies on feminist contributions to the field. I would appreciate the opportunity to continue my hard work for the section.

Reading these kind of posts reminds me of just how technology truly is ever-permeating in this day and age, and I can say with 99% certainty that we have passed the point of no return in our relationship with technology.


I don't mean this in a bad way, of course! Societal concerns aside... I just hope that as the price of memory decreases, the possibility of uploading our brains onto a digital medium becomes a true reality. It's a fantasy that I dream about all the time.
