I’m a Visiting Research Fellow at the Centre for Applied Philosophy, Politics and Ethics, at the University of Brighton, and an Associate Lecturer at the Open University. Since completing my PhD in 2022, I have been preparing my thesis, “Dispossessive Citizenship: Property and Personhood in Speculative Narrative,” for publication as a monograph, and developing ideas for a postdoc project.
I work across literary studies, philosophy, and decolonial thought to study the specularity of the narratives that construct the politics of subjectivity and rights. My research investigates the constitutive metaphors and literary origins of discourses that found their authority on their nonfictional status, arguing that such strategies, in presupposing the epistemologies of universal, purified, and originary truth that are axiomatic for liberal humanism, reinscribe the conceptual architecture of European coloniality.
