PhD student, Associate Lecturer

Research Overview

I am a social scientist at the Lancaster Environment Centre, where I am currently completing a PhD. Drawing on anthropological, feminist, and political ecological approaches, my research focuses on the power and politics of aquatic food systems. I am broadly interested in how environmental, political, and social relations shape access to seafood consumption. I am part of both the Human geography and LEC-REEFS groups in LEC.
