I cannot wait to begin working alongside the amazing existing @britishacademy.bsky.social Fellows as well as my fellow new FBAs.

And huge thanks to my beloved partner and family without whom I wouldn’t have had the essential love and support that have sustained me in my rather unconventional academic career trajectory (in the last 18 years, at least).

Many thanks must go, especially, to all those who proposed and supported my nomination and election.

Very honoured and deeply grateful: to have been elected yesterday as one of the new Fellows of the @britishacademy.bsky.social, an institution I have loved since it funded my PhD study many moons ago.
