Research interests

I’m a historian of the Caribbean, Britain, and France. My work to date has largely focused on the Caribbean itself; my current book project is a comparative study of anti-colonial political thought in five islands – Trinidad, Jamaica, Barbados, Martinique, and Guadeloupe – from the 1880s to the 1930s.

Alongside this work, I also have research interests in the history of the Caribbean diaspora in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, and in Black British and Black European Studies more broadly.

Teaching Interests

At the undergraduate level, I teach O7: Modern Britain and Ireland, 1750 to the present and T12: British Worlds, 1750-1919. I also provide some teaching for Historical Thinking in Caius and supervise dissertations across a wide range of topics.

At the postgraduate level, I supervise MPhil and PhD dissertations and convene an MPhil option course on ‘Modern Britain and the Caribbean’.
