BSocSci (Honours Class 1) UNSW. PhD University of Melbourne

I am a historian in the School of Humanities at the University of Sydney. 

I research twentieth and twenty-first century refugee resettlement, foreign aid, and settler colonialism, and teach modern histories of international relations, displacement, and social movements. A frequent contributor to public discussion, my opinions have been featured in Australian and international media, such as the BBC, ABC, and SBS. 

I have held visiting fellowships at the University of Oxford, York University, and am a current US Fulbright scholar.
