I am a Senior Research Associate working on the Reinventing Learning Cities project at the University of Bristol.
My doctoral research in anthropology at Goldsmiths College, University of London investigated the history, heritage and material culture of a museum collection. As part of this research, I co-curated exhibitions at the Constance Howard Gallery and the Horniman Museum in London.
I am also a co-organiser of the Forging Folklore Research Network.
