I am a Lecturer in the Department of Communication and Internet Studies and a social anthropologist. My research interests combine a diverse range of themes and methodologies, with particular emphasis on the construction of space and place, citizenship, memory, ethnic and national identities and migration. I have published one monograph, titled Tactical Citizenships: Encounters with Everyday State in the Republic of Cyprus (Berghahn) and several peer reviewed articles and book chapters. I have conducted long-term ethnographic research on the islands of Lesbos and Samos (Greece), along the Greek-Albanian border (Epirus, Gjirokastër and Korçë) and in Limassol, Cyprus.
