About

Introduction
My PhD at King's College London was an AHRC-funded project on collaborative music practices across Beirut, Berlin, and Mannheim. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Psychology and Musicology from the University of Heidelberg and an MSt in Ethnomusicology from the University of Oxford. Research interests include diaspora music studies, cultural policy in practice, curatorial theory, and social aspects of music production.
