HomeI am a human geographer, and my work is concerned with collective resources, infrastructure, temporalities and the possibility of envisaging alternative futures. I have written extensively on topics around the public provision of services like libraries and other social infrastructures and have also done research on emerging environmental futures in Aotearoa, focusing on the issue of light pollution.
As a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at Te Whare Wānaka o Aoraki (Lincoln University) I am working with a social science team on the possible futures of bioprotection in Aotearoa.
As a researcher I specialise in qualitative social science methods, including interviews, documentary analysis, autoethnography, and creative or more speculative methods. I am committed to promoting the important work that geography does in the world. As part of that I am currently a Book Review Editor for the New Zealand Geographer journal, and a co-chair of the Australasian Early Career Urban Research Network (AECURN).
