About me
I am a lecturer at the Centre of Education and Teaching Innovation (CETI), where I teach foundation students in architecture, art, and design.
Before joining the University of Westminster in 2022, I worked as a freelance writer and contributed to several publications, including the Canadian Centre for Architecture, RIBA Journal, Wallpaper* Magazine, and Architect’s Journal. I co-founded the architecture criticism collective Afterparti. Additionally, I have taught at the University of Greenwich and Camberwell College of Arts (UAL).
For my undergraduate I studied Interior and Spatial Design at Chelsea College of Arts, UAL and went on to complete a master’s degree in Architectural History at the Bartlett School of Architecture, UCL.
Teaching
I am Deputy Module Leader for Critical Thinking for Academic and Professional Development, a core, university-wide module for foundation students. I also teach on the module Introduction to Academic Practice.
Research
My research focuses on spaces appropriated or enforced on Muslim minorities in cities worldwide. At the core of this research is an examination of the relationship between the body, prayer, and space, along with related questions of citizenship and participation.
Another strand of my research focuses on working-class histories and representation. I am also interested in reimagining how architectural knowledge reaches beyond academia through walking tours, zines, and partnerships.
