(2003) in Archaeology from University College London, and his Ph.D. (2008) in Classics from Stanford  University. He was a fellow of the Kommission für Alte Geschichte und Epigraphik in Munich (2007) and of the Deutscher Akademischer Austauschdienst at the University of Würzburg (2005-6).His doctoral research was on the political transition from Ptolemaic to Roman Egypt and its impact on agrarian institutions, especially land rights and taxation. The study of documentary papyri has also contributed to his work on religious associations and temple administration in Egypt. Broader research interests that intersect with Hellenistic history include Greek democracy and state formation, the history of the ancient Near East and Egypt, and the rise of the Roman empire. His articles have appeared in the Journal of the Economic and Social History of the Orient, Historische Sozialforschung, Ancient Society, and the Journal of Egyptian Archaeology.
