About

I attained a first-class BA (Hons.) in Film at the University of Kent in 2018. During my time at Kent, I studied for a year as an exchange student in the Comparative Literature department of the University of Hong Kong. I then attained an MA (with distinction) in Film and Television Studies at the University of Warwick in 2019. Since 2020, I have been undertaking a PhD in the department, funded by an AHRC Midlands4Cities Studentship (and supervised by Richard Wallace and Rachel Moseley). My PhD is concerned with the form and theoretical implications of the serialised documentary in its various incarnations, which range from "longitudinal" programmes such as Seven Up and A Change of Sex, to the docu-soaps of the 1990s, through to the contemporary true crime serial. My research attends to both the stylistic (and narrative) intersection of seriality and documentary, and the implications of that intersection for notions of character, authorship, and documentary erosion. My broader research interests include television aesthetics, history, and theory, documentary and reality television more broadly, memory and trauma in film and television, and seriality, among others.
