My research has focused on Indian Ocean Creole heritage (particularly in the Seychelles), and history and memory within diasporic, Creole and oceanic worlds.
My research has been widely cited in works on Indian Ocean history and culture. Here are some of my favourite recent publications that have engaged with/ been supported by my work.
