Brief CV

I am a Ramon y Cajal research fellow in the Department of Geography at the University of Girona. I am a geographer with interests in digital, economic, political, and urban geographies, as well as in geographic thought and critical theory. My research has focused on the ways in which entangled processes of social and technological change (especially around digitalization, robotics, and AI) are produced, experienced, and contested in the spaces of everyday life. This has included work studying the development and deployment of social robots in museums, homes, and public spaces; on critical and alternative community practices of digitalization; and on the ideologies and utopian imaginaries propagated by Silicon Valley; among other topics. I am currently developing a new line of research on workers' experiences of AI in different work settings, emerging practices of AI governance in the workplace, and the new economic and social geographies that this generates.

I have a combined honours Bachelor's (2012) in International Development Studies and Contemporary Studies jointly conferred by the University of King's College and Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. I then completed a master's degree (2015) and a PhD (2019) in Geography at the University of Arizona in the United States. During my doctorate, I was a predoctoral visiting researcher at the Department of Humanities at Pompeu Fabra University (2016-2019). From 2019 to 2022 I was an assistant professor in the Department of Geography at the University of Nevada Reno (USA), and from 2022 to 2024 I was assistant professor of digitalization and society at the Universiteit Twente (Netherlands). Before joining the UdG, I also worked in the TURBA research group at the Universitat Oberta de Catalunya.
