Personal profile
Research interests
I am a Lecturer in Sociology specialising in human rights, transitional justice and memory studies.
I joined the University of Bath in 2016. I have previously lectured in Sociology at Liverpool Hope University and at the Centre for the Study of Human Rights at the London School of Economics. I gained my PhD from the the London School of Economics in 2014.
My research explores connections between human rights, transitional justice and memory. My book, Transitional Justice and Memory in Cambodia (2017), considers the different ways that memory is implicated in the ongoing prosecutions at the Khmer Rouge Tribunal (Routlege, Memory Studies: Global Constellations series). I am Co-Investigator on the AHRC-GCRF Network Plus Award 'Changing the Story' and a Co-Investigator on the GW4 Alliance network 'Transformative History Education'.
I am currently developing new research projects that explore the opportunities and challenges in the delivery of genocide education; meaning making practices, trajectories and experiences of post-conflict ex-combatants; and the prospects of developing variying 'green' agendas for transitional justice research.
Willing to supervise PhD
I am available to supervise research projects on human rights, transitional justice, and memory studies. I am especially interested in supervising projects focusing on South East Asia.
