I am a PhD student in the Department of Anthropology at the London School of Economics. Based on 18 months fieldwork in several villages of the Enshi region of central China, my thesis deals with the changes in everyday moralities as they are experienced by ordinary people in contemporary rural China. More concretely I describe and analyze family, work, ritual and local politics.

Before I came to the LSE, I studied at the Institut fuer Ethnologie und Afrikanistik, LMU Munich, and during my two years in China I was a teaching fellow in the Department of Sociology at Tsinghua University in Beijing.

I am a member of several research networks, including the NYLON Research Network, the Conflicts in Time ESRC Seminar Series, the Gambling Research Network, and the China in Comparative Perspective Network.
