Profile
Biography
I joined the Department of Sociology in 2017 to undertake my PhD, which examined the attachment and generation of value in the disposal of the dead body. The project was awarded with the AsSIST-UK Andrew Webster PhD Prize (2022) for its contribution to policy and theory in the environmental and technological management of the dead body.
After completing my PhD I took on an Associate Lecturer role in the department in January 2021 where I primarily taught on the postgraduate programmes in Social Media. Following this, I became a Postdoctoral Research Associate in October 2023 working with Professor Nik Brown on the biopolitics of the biosciences.
