About me

I study how refugees and other migrants who are residing in prolonged legal uncertainty beyond Europe make sense of and navigate their situated and digitally connected lives. My approach is ethnographic, as I am interested in how technological changes play out in the everyday experience of people who, under violent or dire conditions, seek refuge. I am inspired by and dedicated to decolonialising research practices and undoing borders. My academic base is Leiden University Institute for History where I work as Research Officer / Postdoc for the Leiden-Delft-Erasmus centre Governance of Migration and Diversity (LDE GMD)⁠.
