Biography

I am interested in the role of sound—in its production as music and expressive utility as discourse—in (re)shaping the production of Black Atlantic Geographies. My research attempts to create/play with a theoretical framework that considers how spaces are produced and continuously reproduced as Black (sonic) geographies in the intersecting worlds of Lusofonia imaginaries.
