I am an anthropologist at the Society and Health Institute. My previous research experience includes media studies, digital security, business and human rights, and disaster and One Health. As a member of AMIS program in Thailand, I conducted ethnographic research into antimicrobial use in tangerine plantations to understand how using chemical substances; pesticides, fertilizers, herbicides, antibiotics, have been constructed and transmitted. This led to my co-authoring a publication for Medical Anthropology Theory, titled Seeing Green: Plants, Pests, Pathogens, People and Pharmaceuticalisation in Thai Mandarin Orchards.
