I’m a multimodal ethnographer, transmedia storyteller, and filmmaker. My work builds on decolonial, queer, and feminist sensory ethnography methods to understand Indigenous resistance, borderland disputes, and refugee issues on the India-Bangladesh-Myanmar-China borderlands and in "the Balkans.” My films have screened at international film festivals, universities, museums, and public and art institutions in Athens, Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Paris, New York, Yangon, New Orleans, Los Angeles, DC, and San Jose. Latest media projects include I Am A Whisper, My Dear, a collaborative ethnofiction film exploring LGBTQIA+ activism on the Southeast Asian borderlands; and, Anatomically, the heart is always incorrect, a multimedia play that uses autoethnography, poetry, animation, and digital storytelling to explore Eastern-European embodiment, politics, and heritage. I’m co-founder of Ethnocine Film Collective, board member of The Society for Visual Anthropology. I hold a BA in Anthropology (Emory), a PhD in anthropology and film (Cornell), and I currently serve as a Postdoctoral Fellow in Global Media and Film, in the Culture & Politics Program at Georgetown University.
