I’m a Research Fellow in History at Northumbria University. I currently work on the AHRC-DFG funded project, 'University Students as Migrants in Western Europe, 1960s-1980s' with Daniel Laqua, Isabella Löhr and Lucie Lamy.
Another strand of my research focuses on trade unions and the politics of migration, with case studies focusing on early 20th century South Africa, Sri Lanka and Myanmar/Burma.
Before Northumbria, I completed a PhD at the University of Edinburgh in 2020. I was a Postdoctoral Research Fellow with the International Studies Group at the University of the Free State between 2020 and 2021, and a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the University of Glasgow between 2022 and 2025.
My first book – Militant Migrants: Clements Kadalie and the Mass Movement of Black Workers in Southern Africa, 1896-1951 – is due out with Liverpool University Press in November 2025.
