Research Interests
My current research focuses on social-ecological systems, coastal-marine spatial planning, and protected areas. I am investigating the governance of marine commons in the context of accentuating capitalist crises, aiming to bring together anti- and decolonial epistemologies and struggles related to conservation ethics and more-than-human relations.
