About me
My work is situated at the intersection of social geography, critical political economy, and ethnography: this is reflected by my training, institutional homes, and publication record.
In 2018, I completed a PhD in Politics at the University of Manchester, UK. This was followed by a 3,5-year research fellowship in Geography at the University of Cambridge and Darwin College, Cambridge, UK; and a Marie Curie Research Fellow in the Department of Geography, Urban Planning and International Development, at the University of Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
​
Currently, I am a Senior Political Economist at Bauhaus Earth in Berlin, Germany.
​
All my research outputs appear in leading geography journals, including Progress in Human Geography, Antipode, Society and Space, The Annals of The American Association of Geographers, The Transactions of The Institute of British Geographers, Geoforum, Political Geography, and others.
​
My first research monograph The Politics of Precarity: Spaces of Extractivism, Violence, and Suffering was published in 2021 with Routledge Interventions series that provides a forum for innovative and interdisciplinary work that engages with a range of critical, post-structural approaches to global politics.
