Current Project

My ongoing research operates within the field of transnational decolonial queerness. Extending the analyses of decolonial praxes and politics to diasporic, postcolonial and queer literatures and cultures, I aim to contribute to emerging critiques of eurocentric queer articulations through the lens of decolonial studies.

Project:

I’m the Principal Investigator (France) of the France-Berkeley Fund grant (2022-2023). The project titled, “Transnational Archiving of Sexualities: Engaging Plural Pasts” foregrounds collective knowledge in the field of archiving. For more information, please see, https://fbf.berkeley.edu/publications/transnational-archiving-sexualities-engaging-plural-pasts

Education and Academic Positions:

Prior to holding various teaching positions in France (University of Le Havre and University Paris 8), I was employed as a Postdoctoral Fellow in English at the University of Leicester. I joined University Paris Cité (formerly Paris VII) as Associate Professor in 2018.
  • I held the position of Research Fellow, Institute Project on Decoloniality (2022) at the School of Social and Political Science of the Institute for the Advanced Studies in the Humanities (IASH), University of Edinburgh. See, https://www.iash.ed.ac.uk/ipd/year-one
