Biography

Personal website: .

I am an urban geographer with interests in place-making; housing and property; the politics of urban sustainability; and justice. I serve as Head of Department of Geography and Environment.

I have been a Senior Lecturer of Human Geography at Aberdeen since 2020. I previously held faculty posts at University of Oklahoma and Florida State University.

My doctoral training was in urban geography at Clark University in Worcester, Massachusetts, USA. Previously, I completed M.A. degrees at Clark and at New York University’s Gallatin School, as well as a B.A. in Liberal Arts at Hampshire College in Amherst, MA, USA.
