About

Steering Committee, European Consortium for Political Research Standing Group on Gender and Politics I am a Banting Postdoctoral Researcher at York University and Honorary Fellow at the University of Edinburgh. My research is about the operationalization of the Black feminist theory of intersectionality in policy and practice: its influence and possibilities, as well as the discursive and material resistance it faces. I also have a particular interest in intersectional research methodology. I hold a BA in Political Science and Women’s Studies (Simon Fraser University, Canada), an MA in Gender Studies (SOAS, University of London), and a PhD in Social Policy (University of Edinburgh, funded by the UK Economic and Social Research Council). Prior to completing my PhD, I held research and practitioner roles at equity-seeking NGOs including the Equality Challenge Unit (now Advance HE) and centred (a London-based LGBTQ community development organisation).
