Jackson Tilley

Raised in Central Louisiana, Jackson had an interest in politics from an early age. During his time at Louisiana State University, he concentrated his studies on international politics and law. In addition to his studies, Jackson worked as a research assistant to various faculty members and graduate students within the Department of Political Science. His work helped lead to the development of new tools in the understanding of cyber-attacks and limited probe theory in the realm of international relations. During the latter years of his college career, Jackson developed a deep passion for the study of outer space, particularly the political circumstances surrounding space exploration and militarization. In graduate school, Jackson has worked as a research assistant for various professors, assisted in teaching classes on American Government, and interned at a major federal agency in Washinton D.C. Outside of class, Jackson is often hiking, reading a good book, sipping coffee at local café, or playing guitar.
