ABOUT
I specialise in medieval Islamicate history with a focus on the Fatimid period. Geographically my interested is very broad, particularly strong interested the Maghrib and Khurasan (and Transoxiana). While I have had a very traditional Islamic Studies education, after finishing my PhD I have cultivated an interest in digital humanities.
