Welcome to my website. I am a feminist political geographer teaching and writing about the spatial politics of war, gender, and humanitarianism. I am an assistant professor of International Relations at the University of Sheffield and an affiliate of the Center for International Security and Cooperation (CISAC) at Stanford University. Before this, I completed my PhD in Geography at UC Berkeley and held fellowships at Stanford University and the Watson Institute for International and Public Affairs at Brown University. My first book, At War with Women: Military Humanitarianism and Imperial Feminism in an Era of Permanent War (Cornell University Press, 2023), explores how post-9/11 politics of gender and development have transformed US military power. I currently work closely with the Purdue Policy Research Institute and Brown University's Costs of War project to direct a collaborative study on understanding and reimagining US beliefs about militarism and foreign wars. This project is funded by the Carnegie Corporations's International Peace and Security Program.
