About

I am a Senior Researcher and UKRI Future Leaders Fellow in the Department of Social Anthropology at the University of St Andrews. I am also a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts (FRSA) and a member of the editorial board of ‘Worldwide Waste: Journal of Interdisciplinary Studies’.

I received my PhD in Social Anthropology at the University of Cambridge (2017) and have held research positions at the Universities of Cambridge, Manchester, and Surrey.

I have conducted research in Uruguay, Mexico, Argentina, and the UK on themes relating to labour, waste, cardboard publishing, and plastics.
