Personal profile

Personal profile

I am a social scientist and ethnographer researching collective security practices. My work explores the different security needs, perspectives and practices amongst groups of people living and working at the margins of societies. It thus focuses on how technology and the information flows that it enables - shaped by social structures, relations and interactions - facilitate multiple security experiences and understandings. My research is inherently ground-up in nature and driven by the co-production of knowledge with diverse groups of people, in order to understand the wider security implications of information technology. I have undertaken extensive fieldwork as part of several distinct research projects, in the UK and overseas, with maritime and seafaring communities, refugee and migrant communities as well as protesters. She/her, they/them.
