Short Bio

I am a linguistic and cultural anthropologist with an expertise in Southeast Asia and a strong interest in the intersection between language and neoliberalism.

 

My most recent publications include: Methods of Desire: Language, Morality, and Affect in Neoliberal Indonesia (University of Hawaii Press 2019); One or Two Words: Language and Politics in the Toraja of Indonesia (NUS Press 2020); “The Act of Reading Aloud” (Discourse and Society 2020);“The Tiny Hand of Donald Trump” (Signs and Society 2019); “Milano, a place to be: Expo 2015 and the chronotopic rebranding of Italy’s moral capital” (in Routledge 2020).

 

Prior to joining the Department of History, Cultures, and Civilizations, I have held research and teaching appointments in a range of academic contexts in Europe and the US, including Sarah Lawrence College, in New York, the University of Milano-Bicocca, the Institute of Social Sciences (ICS) and Institute of Theoretical and Computational Linguistics (ILTEC), in Lisbon.
