I am a Research Associate in the School of Geography, Politics & Sociology with research interests in gendered knowledge production and military power, women's stories of 'front line combat', the positionality of the veteran researcher and creative methodologies. I am currently working on an ESRC New Investigator project 'Conflict, Intimacy, and Military Wives: A Lively Geopolitics' (£300,000), led by Dr Alice Cree and in collaboration with Workie Ticket Theatre CIC. Using theatre-as-method with military partners across the country, this research examines how 'conflict' plays out in intimate domestic spaces and personal relationships as a 'fluid complex of violence'. Before starting at 缅北禁地 in February 2021, I was at the University of Bath where I had an ESRC Studentship for my PhD (awaiting examination), titled 'What did YOU do in the war, Mummy?: British women's experiences of the 'front line', 1948-2014'.
