Since October 2023, I am an  ESRC Postdoctoral Fellow based at the Politics Department, University of Manchester. My research focuses on utilities-based indebtedness and, largely, on energy debt. Specifically, it explores its relationship with the global crisis in social reproduction as well as its localised manifestations with an emphasis on their gendered and classed dimensions.

I have received my PhD in Politics from the Politics Department at the University of Manchester in July 2022 and worked at the department as a Lecturer (T&S) in Politics (2022-2023). Upon the receipt of my PhD, I worked Research Assistant in the project "Access to health: The role of healthcare providers in dismantling barriers to health services for drug users", led by Dr Cristina Temenos (Reader in Human Geography, Department of Geography, University of Manchester). During my doctoral studies,  I also worked as a Teaching Assistant (2019-2021) at the Politics Department and as a Research Assistant in the project "SheTrades: Gendering Global Trade Governance” led by Dr Erin Hannah, (Associate Professor and Chair, Department of Political Science, King’s University College at the University of Western Ontario), Dr Adrienne Roberts (Senior Lecturer in International Politics, Politics Department, University of Manchester) and Dr Silke Trommer (Senior Lecturer in Politics,Politics Department, University of Manchester).

My research interests lie at the intersections of feminist political economy, everyday political economy, and feminist geography. Broadly, I am interested in how social reproduction and its everyday realities, practices and relations (e.g., kinship, friendship) are shaped by gendered and capitalist structures of power at times of crisis and restructuring with a particular focus on semi-peripheral spaces, particularly in Southern Europe. My current research explores this theme with a focus utilities-based indebtedness in the context of the Greek debt crisis and its aftermath. 

My teaching focuses on modules related largely to Political Economy. I have previously taught on POLI10502 The Politics of the Global Economy and on POLI20711 The Politics of Globalisation

In 2022-2023,  I taught both on undergraduate and master’s level modules.
