I am a political ecologist and education scholar who works with more-than-human and decolonial imaginaries to explore: grassroots and community-led environmental movements, nonformal and land-based education, justice-based transitions, and the disruption of normative planetary futures. I hold substantial experience researching European ecovillages using qualitative methods; looking to these sites as radical, hopeful, and yet sometimes troubled spaces for reconciling human and more-than-human relations. My book titled 'European Ecovillages: Crisis, Hope and the Politics of Transition' will be published with Bristol University Press (BUP) in 2027.

My other research activities have included examining experiences of student eco-anxiety for a UKRI-funded project with Cabot Institute for the Environment and the temporal pedagogies that emerge through immersive land connection for School of Education, University of Bristol.

Aside from research, I teach extensively across the university, designing and leading lectures and/or acting as unit convenor on the folllowing modules:

• BSc Sustainable Development
• BSc Geographies of Work and Employment
• MSc Environmental Policy and Politics
• BSc Geography Past, Present and Future
• BSc Key Concepts in Human Geography
• BSc Qualitative Research Methods

Both my research and teaching draw on a rich history of involvement in civil society initiatives and go beyond technocratic visions of sustainability to foreground relationality, care, and justice. I am an active member of the Global Ecovillage Network (GEN) Research Circle and Intentional Communities Research Network.
