Profile
I am an Assistant Professor in the Urban Studies Section of the Urbanism Department at the Faculty of Architecture and the Built Environment. In my research I take a social justice perspective on urban environmental policy and management. I have just ended a Leverhulme Early Career Fellowship in which I looked at the social justice of urban air pollution management, using quantitative and qualitative methods, with case studies of the (ultra) low emission zones in London and Brussels. I am still writing up the findings, and I will soon start exploring ideas and collaborations for future projects.

Leverhulme Early Career Fellowship
In 2019 I was awarded a three-year Leverhulme Early Career Fellowship in which I looked at the social justice of urban air pollution management, through a comparative case study of low emission zones in Brussels and London. My project was titled "Cleaner air at all costs? A social justice perspective on urban air pollution". I took up this fellowship from September 2019 until March 2022 at the Department of Urban Studies and Planning at the University of Sheffield.
