Alumnus of the University of Hong Kong
I'm currently a doctoral researcher at Cambridge, exploring how commoning practices can inform post-capitalist urban policy – drawing on years of environmental and human rights activism, an interdisciplinary academic path, and my former work as an art & sustainability researcher at Studio Olafur Eliasson. Along the way, I picked up an MSc in Sustainable Development at St Andrews, studied Chinese & French at Durham, and trained in Photography at Kisképző, the Hungarian University of Fine Arts.
I am an undergraduate Laidlaw scholar from Trinity College Dublin, Ireland. I have lived most of my life in Dublin (apart from three years in Berlin - but no, I can't speak German). My main research area is political philosophy; my research interests in particular are in how human rights can be used as an approach to morality, and how we should consider and address 'structural injustices' in society. I also have interests in democratic theory, and heterodox approaches to economics.
Outside academia, I am often involved in social/political activism. I'm a keen ultimate frisbee player, and I enjoy chess, table tennis, and hiking. I'm also (slowly) learning French and Polish.
