I’m currently pursuing an interdisciplinary master’s based at universities in Berlin (Germany), Pretoria (South Africa), and New Delhi (India). My research interests are primarily in the critical anthropology and sociology of politics, science, technology, and knowledge.

I have also held a longstanding interest in the intersection of art and science. As such, much of my work, both scholarly and artistic, aims to combine traditional academic work with creative expression.

For my bachelor’s degree, I studied science, technology, & society (STS); international relations; and film & media studies at Stanford University. My honours thesis was related to political anthropology and historiography of Cold War archival materials.
