Teaching Fellow

Director of Student Experience (PG Lead)

I joined School for Cross-Faculty Studies, Global Sustainable Development in September 2024 as Teaching Fellow and the Director of Student Experience (PG Lead) in the School. I am an interdisciplinary scholar with research interests at the intersection of intercultural communication, space and place, identity and belonging and sustainable migration. I am fascinated with the interplay between locations, cultural contexts, and communication patterns. In my previous research I aimed to shed light on the complex ways in which people create meaning within their environments and across cultural boundaries.

Teaching

Research

My doctoral research on diaspora communities focussed on themes such as identity, othering and (un)belonging, understandings of space and place and explored how members of the community make claims of (un)belonging and construct their identity through their perception of space.
