Lecturer in Social Anthropology, University of Reading I am a Lecturer in Social Anthropology in the Department of Archaeology at the University of Reading. My research looks at the politics and aesthetics of material culture in Mexico and the United Kingdom, especially the topics of art production, cultural tourism and religious heritage. I completed my PhD at the London School of Economics in 2012, after which I held a postdoctoral research fellowship at the University of Oslo and a Marie Skłodowska-Curie fellowship at the University of Kent, as well as visiting teaching positions at Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg and the University of Cambridge.
