About

I’m a historian of early Muslim societies.

In 2013–16 I was a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Fellow at the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC), working as part of an international collaborative project called Power and Institutions in Medieval Islam and Christendom (PIMIC). Over the course of this project I spent time as a visiting researcher at Panthéon-Sorbonne, Paris; the School of Oriental and African Studies, London; Tel Aviv University; and the Netherlands Institute in Turkey, Istanbul.

In 2017–19 I’ve been teaching undergraduate tutorials in Medieval and Middle Eastern History at St Andrews.

Education

I’m currently finishing my PhD in Medieval History at the University of Amsterdam. Previously I studied French and Arabic at UCL and SOAS, University of London. I started my graduate career at the Oriental Institute, University of Oxford, in Islamic Studies and History, before PIMIC stole me away.
