My research investigates the role of heat as a political, social, and ecological actor in contemporary South Asia. You can find my writing in Anthropological Quarterly, South Asia: The Journal of South Asian Studies, as well as in an edited volume from Vernon Press entitled Lost Kingdom: Animal Death in the Anthropocene.
A rural-to-urban migrant of Poarch (Creek) descent, I grew up in the swamps of south Georgia. I now live and work in Seattle, as a guest on the occupied homelands of Coast Salish peoples.
