I am transnational, multigenerational byproduct of empire and this is central to my research and teaching. Working broadly around the theme of the colonial present, I study structural forms of violence (e.g. race, caste, class, patriarchy) rooted or exacerbated through imperial encounters that have been sanitized of their colonial histories and normalized in the present day. At the moment, I have three primary areas of research:

• The first is a book on the subject pluriversal sovereignty, focusing on 19^th century Sri Lanka and its entanglements as part of the British empire
• The second concerns settler-colonial studies and decolonial options grounded in life as an immigrant to 惭颈鈥檏尘补鈥檏颈听.This work involves recent and in-progress writing analyzing citizenship as a mode of colonization, as well as pluriversal ethics and values associated with taking Indigenous sovereignty seriously.
• The third is a four-year SSHRC Insight Grant funded project studying experiences of racialization of Asian international students to Canadian universities, where I work as the Co-Investigator and project lead for the Halifax case study.

I am cross-appointed to the Departments of International Development Studies, History, and Political Science and am interested in working with graduate students interested in similar and related themes. I am also a Founding Fellow at the MacEachen Institute of Public Policy and Governance听 (2019 鈥� 2021) and served as the Chair and Program Chair of the 听of the International Studies Association (2019 鈥� 2020). I teach courses on the colonial foundations of development studies and the state, M.K. Gandhi, postcolonial politics, and activism. In 2020/2021 I will be teaching:

• INTD 听/听: International Development Studies Honours Thesis Seminar
• INTD 2001: 3-week module听on (neo)colonialism and development
• HIST : Empire, War, and Resistance in Sri Lanka (Also an IDS-Approved class)
• HIST : Becoming The State (Also an IDS-Approved class)
