Profile
Biography
I joined Essex Law School in December 2019 having completed a Postdoctoral Fellowship at the National University of Singapore and a DPhil, MPhil and MJur programmes at the University of Oxford. My research interests include: human trafficking and modern slavery, the intersection between criminal justice and human rights, and the protection of human rights in the private sphere, especially in the context of international business, trade and global value chains. Beyond academic research, I have consulted a range of international and non-governmental organizations including: the Council of Europe, UNODC, USAID, CIDA, The AIRE Centre, and more. In addition to my teaching at Essex Law School, I have taught Law and Public Policy at the Blavatnik School of Government, the University of Oxford, a well as European Human Rights Law at the Faculty of Law, the University of Oxford. I have acted as Senior Associate Editor of the Asian Journal of International Law since 2018.
