About

I am interested in migration, ethnographically, as embodied, affective, sensorial experiences and subjectivities, and as encounters with social formations and relations including kinship, family, reproduction, sexuality, and white supremacy and anti-Black racism. I have focused on the boundaries between tourism and migration through the lens of transnational interracial reproduction, which my latest book Bloom Spaces: Reproduction and Tourism on the Caribbean Coast of Costa Rica addresses. Currently, I have a graphic ethnography underway, a collaborative project with community members, stories of immigrant and refugee youths’ experiences in Winnipeg and the complex social relations they navigated in a multi-racial inner city. Research in the Okanagan engages with issues of sound and the politics of space in the context of summer tourism and the various mobilities of tourists, immigrants, settlers that converge seasonally in the pursuit of recreation and leisure.
