Senior Lecturer in Tourism

I am a Cultural Geographer schooled at the University of Cambridge and now work as a Lecturer in Tourism Studies at the 亚色视频.

Currently completing a doctorate on the changing identity of British Muslim women through travel, I am deeply interested in matters of Islamic modernity.

My other research interests concern geopolitical issues as they relate to the traditional / transitional use of space and place today, and I have published articles and chapters in the realm of public culture, the politics of tourism, issues of representation and cultural mobility.

I am a keen thinker on the application of emergent critico-interpretive / soft science approaches in the humanities (in general), and on spirituality (in particular).
