Research Statement: My work examines how law and other forms of state power shape the spaces of economic life. My dissertation explores these issues through an intellectual and geographical history of the law and economics movement, a group of legal scholars and economists whose work has helped to transform the dominant paradigms of legal-economic thought in the United States since the postwar period.

Before arriving at UBC, I worked with housing rights organizations in Toronto. Since starting my PhD, I have continued to write on housing issues, alongside published work on digital platforms, labor rights and exploitation, law, and the politics of infrastructure.
