She is the leading Research Fellow on the international team conducting the research project called Elite independent schools in globalising circumstances: a multi-sited global ethnography and is currently working on a new book called Moving Ideas and Mobile Intellectuals.

I am also conversant with a range of disciplines that intersect with my chosen areas of research: from philosophy to cultural anthropology, and from cultural geography to history.
