Research interests
As a qualitative researcher, she explores the connections between speculative fiction and design in the context of urban space. Her doctoral project spans investigation of solarpunk novels and anthologies, contemporary London-based eco-activism, eco-narratology, and independent publishing practices. Animated by critical utopianism, her work explores the subversive potentials of intersectional eco-activism and science-fictional storytelling in prefiguring alternatives to neoliberal capitalist logics.
