She is the author of Prismatic Media, Transnational Circuits: Feminism in a Globalized Present and co-editor of the Open Access anthology Moving Images: Mediating Migration as Crisis. Her current research project, Greenhouse Effects: The Mediation of Life and the Migration of Labor, seeks to explore how greenhouses have been a central infrastructure for the racialised, classed and gendered global movement of humans, plants, animals, knowledge and culture over the last several centuries and today.
