About me
Lecturer in the Department of Geography and Environmental Management. In my research, I explore the intersections between digitalisation, development, urbanisation and welfare.
My earlier research, funded by the ESRC, has looked at labour geographies of India's new services economy, focussing on working lives of those engaged at the margins of its IT & BPM sectors. Currently, I am working on a study documenting lives and experiences of digital app-based workers in the aftermath of COVID-19 in urban India, and their negotiations with the state, platform companies and labour market intermediaries. Since 2022, I am involved in a project on transnational mobility amongst Tech workers in the UK and India.
I teach and supervise students at UWE on a broad range of topics in geography, development and environmental managment, including: geographies of globalisation, global cities and urbanisms; environment and social justice; geographical research methods. I have previously taught at the University of Sheffiled and Queen Mary University of London.
I welcome enquiries from prospective PhD students on topics related to global development, platform labour, global cities, digitalisation, and sustainability.
