I am a new member of EASA, after having followed the impressive research of many members and networks for several years. I recently relocated from Australia where I was in the Institute for Culture and Society at Western Sydney University, when I was appointed as a Lecturer in Digital Anthropology in the Department of Social Anthropology and the Granada Centre for Visual Anthropology at the University of Manchester.
My aspirations are to become more active in EASA and if elected, to work with the Executive Committee to further a commitment to anthropology in public engagement and educative practices, drawing on my experience in research centres, media studies departments and my own work on digital and mobile media.
Having been an early career scholar on fixed term contracts for a decade prior to my current position, I am committed to valorising the diversity of emerging voices in anthropology, in Europe and beyond.
Nominating member: Daniel Miller (University College London); Supporting member: Angela Torresan (University of Manchester)
