My core research and teaching interest is in international communication. I am particularly interested in exploring the dynamics of international media institutions and the cultural and economic implications of transnational media flows. I am the Course Director of MA International Media Management (https://cutt.ly/TeBVWaJ) hosted by the Media Arts Department. Apart from teaching at the postgraduate level, I also lead or contribute lectures to undergraduate courses including Film, Television and Digital Histories, the Creative Industries and Media Research Project. I am happy to supervise PhD projects.
