Biography

I am a PhD candidate in Criminology at the University of Melbourne, and am (as far as I know) socially, genetically and chromosomally "female". My academic interests are informed by the forms and processes of social control, the politics of identity and the construction of consent in contemporary social and political institutions.

I live in Melbourne, Australia, with my partner who is also a criminologist, and together we are raising an Alaskan Malamute, and caring for three cats.

Current Projects

I am currently completing my PhD in Criminology at the University of Melbourne. My thesis research examines the ways in which gender and gender transgressions, as they are exposed and reflected by the experiences of transgendered people and differently gendered people, are constructed, regulated and controlled in everyday life.
