Hi! I am an ESRC-funded PhD student at Lancaster University, having undertaken a Politics MA and History and Politics BA at the institution. My MA research has been featured in Issue 21 of EPOCH.

​

My PhD project proposes to build on the conclusions of my MA research about the significance of communal agency in creating fairer social outcomes through empowering people to be problem solvers from the grassroots. I aim to do this by taking an arts-based approach to archival research and examining how practitioners bring local, context-bound knowledge to interpreting social problems.

​

More broadly, I am interested in the politics of race and legacies of colonialism as they relate to the experiences of migrant and diasporic communities. This aligns closely with my interests in the world of sport, which are often a proxy into discussing bigger questions about identity and belonging.
