About

My research spans feminist, economic, social and political geographies, particularly in terms of the relationships between care, paid work and the home, and the interconnections between inequalities, social reproduction and the state, primarily in urban North America. I have a long-standing interest in the geographies of care, work and diversity, including the shifting contours of welfare, care migration, the meanings of home and the experiences of care workers. My current focus is the migration of care workers, domestic workers’ activism and workplace rights.
