Bio
Research Interests
Guided by feminist and critical race theory, my research seeks to better understand the transnational production of threat, the criminalization of geographies, and self-making among those categorized as threat. Most broadly, I am interested in issues related to securitization, racialization, space, visuality and sovereignty. My fieldwork is conducted in Trinidad in the areas of East Port of Spain, and Enterprise, Chaguanas. My methods combine participant-observation, spatial analysis and mapping, forensic architecture, analysis of embodied comportment in space, archival research of media representations, and collaborative photography.
