About
I am a first-year DPhil student, working on sexuality and urban space in Madras. I focus on institutions of higher education, and examine how students of these institutions negotiate their sexuality within campuses and while traveling across the city.
As a Masters' student, I studied Contemporary Indian History, and wrote a thesis on Metaphors of Masculinity in Nehru's nationalist writing. As an undergraduate, I studied Indian History, and worked on a variety of topics, including contemporary economic history, intellectual movements of the 19th and early 20th centuries and media history in India.
