My work exists at the convergence of literary studies, cultural studies, and performance studies, global feminism, decoloniality, Black studies, and dramaturgies of cruelty. My current research explores the nexus of intersections between necrocapitalism, crisis, and violence towards aspects of (global) migration, environmental racism, and climate justice.

 I have spent extensive research periods at the University of the Western Cape (UWC) in South Africa and at Potsdam University in Germany. I am an awardee of the Marietta Blau Scholarship and an OeAW (Austrian Academy of Sciences) postdoctoral fellowship. My doctoral thesis carries the title Topographies of Cruelty: Radical Performances in South African and British Theatre.
