I am a teacher educator in the Faculty of Education at Monash University in Melbourne Australia.
My research examines the historical formation of education concepts. In 2012 I organised an international conference on early childhood education as a collaboration between Monash University and the University of Cape Coast in Ghana; in 2014 I organised a second of these international conferences in collaboration with Universidad Diego Portales in Santiago, Chile.
I am currently investigating the formation of the concept of "Belonging" as used by the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA).

I have 15 years of interdisciplinary qualitative research experience with hard to reach groups (i.e. tribal women, LGBTQI+ persons seeking asylum), including 30 months of fieldwork in India and Germany and my high-impact publications include a prize-nominated monograph published with Cambridge University Press and two recent publications on queer asylum in Germany in Ethnic and Racial Studies (2019) and the Journal of Ethnic and Migration Studies (2020). I am the co-founder and convener of the Queer European Asylum Network, an umbrella organization that centers the voices of LGBTQI+ asylum claimants, refugees and activists in policy discussions on queer migration and asylum in Europe.
I hold a Ph.D. in law and society and an M.A. in sociocultural anthropology, international law, and East Asian art history from University of Zurich. I have taught courses on law and society, transnational feminisms, and intersectionality at Columbia University and City University of New York and was a Visiting Scholar and a Research Fellow at the Center for Gender and Sexuality Law, Columbia Law School.

My research analyses how girls and young women negotiate girl power discourses in international development. I have published articles in the British Journal of Politics and International Relations, Girlhood Studies and Gender and Development. My work focuses on contrasting how girls are depicted in media and development discourses with girls' own interpretations of what empowerment means to them. This has included conducting media and policy analysis as well as focus groups with girls in the UK, US and Malawi. My research interests reflect my background both in youth work and the charity sector, including four years working at the British Red Cross. I am also on the editorial board of E-International Relations, the world's leading open access website for students and scholars of international politics.
