I am an Associate Professor in Human Geography. I write and teach on transnational anticolonialisms, young womanhood, and domestic modernity in the early 20th century.

My Work

Research

I am currently writing a book about domestic modernity and Christian education in Southern India. I also think a lot about tricontinental anticolonialism, and am beginning to write about education as a public good.

Teaching

I am open to hearing from prospective PhD candidates who are interested in girlhood, domesticity, and colonial histories.

Here is further information on the application process, and the Oxford DPhil programme.

If you want to discuss working with me for a DPhil, email me with a research proposal. On writing a good research proposal, see Alison Phipps’s tips.

If you are thinking of submitting to Gender, Place, and Culture, and aren’t sure if your article is a good fit, write to me and I’m happy to talk more. For early career scholars who are learning to write journal articles, I promise it’s not magic, it’s mostly formulaic (boring as that sounds). This is an excellent primer on what goes into a publishable article.
