Biography

BA (Binghamton University), JD (American University, Washington College of Law), MSc (Cardiff University), PhD (Cardiff University)

I joined the department as a Lecturer in Education in June 2019 as a member of the Centre for Research on Education and Social Justice (CRESJ). I employ Critical Race Theory and Bourdieu as primary theoretical frameworks in my research. I have an ongoing interest in developing transparent and comprehensive understandings of how the intersectionality of ‘race’, class, gender and faith impact Black and Minority Ethnic young people’s secondary and higher education trajectories. Inequalities in these areas are routinely reproduced over time yet are seldom acknowledged or addressed. My research is elucidated by Critical Race Theory and Bourdieusian theory. My teaching is informed by Critical Pedagogical approaches to education (Friere, Giroux and hooks). I use social theory, social justice concepts and visual methods to expose and inform my analysis and understanding of Black and Minority Ethnic (BAME) young people’s perspectives.

Departmental roles

I currently teach undergraduate (BA) and postgraduate (MA) modules related to sociology of education, education policy, race, class and gender inequalities in higher education. I supervise undergraduate and postgraduate students. Currently I am Programme leader for BA in Sociology and Education (BASE).
