About me
Positioned at the interface of public financial management and critical accounting, my work investigates how different forms of life are valued and assessed, focusing on financial valuation practices. Central to this inquiry is approaching accounting not only as a neutral or technical tool for recording transactions, but as a performative practice that constructs reality.
