Profile
Before joining Loughborough in 2022, I was Lecturer in Sociology at the University of Lincoln and Leverhulme Early Career Fellow at the University of Warwick.
I have published extensively about class, migration, race, globalisation and cultural taste in the monographs Coloniality and Meritocracy in Unequal EU Migrations (BUP); Globalization, Music and Cultures of Distinction (Palgrave); and in journals like Sociology, The Sociological Review, Poetics, Current Sociology, Journal of Ethnic and Migration Studies, American Behavioral Scientist, Cultural Sociology.
I sit on the editorial board of the journal Cultural Sociology and am Associate Editor for the journal European Societies. I was nominated Sociologist of the Month by the journal Current Sociology in 2020 and co-edited a Special Issue of the journal Poetics in 2019.
