I am a Research Fellow at the Central European University (Budapest). An anthropologist with a regional focus on south India, I work primarily on cities, new media and doing academia differently.

I have published work on topics including small cities, housing, vigilantism and land. I am keen to open up universities, which I do (hopefully) by both making academic podcasts and teaching others how to make them, and as part of an access programme for refugees and asylum seekers. I like to work with sounds, images and texts.

My current research projects include – urban change in Mangaluru (India), academic podcasting, corruption and environmental damage in Hungary, digital media, and urban justice in Europe.

Within UrbanA I work on different aspects of the project including co-producing the UrbanA podcast.
