About Me
He is a human geographer broadly interested in the geographies of exclusion and inclusion. He approaches his work through three interrelated themes: space, knowledge, and power. To conceptualize these themes and their interrelations, he draws upon various theoretical frameworks, including governmentality theory, actor-network theory, and assemblage theory. His methodological approaches include discourse analysis, in-depth interviewing, participant observation, arts-based inquiry, and participatory action research. His work has examined (a) spaces of care, home, and work and their role in shaping the lived experiences of socially marginalized and vulnerable individuals, and (b) spaces of policy development and implementation and their role in creating healthy, enabling, and equitable urban environments.
