Research interests
I'm a Research Associate on the PRIME Project.
My research sits at the intersection of the sociologies of cities, race, and migation. My ESRC funded PhD research in Sociological Studies at the University of Sheffield looked at the policy of asylum dispersal and dynamics of urban belonging. I am also an Honorary Research Fellow in the Department of Sociology at the University of Warwick where I worked on the Open City Project.
