PhD
I completed a PhD in Translation Studies at the University of Roehampton in 2024, having been awarded an Arts and Humanities Techne Studentship in 2019. My research deals with collaborative, integrated and non-normative approaches to film translation and accessibility. I underwent an ethnographic study during the production of a British feature film, writing a thesis entitled ‘Accessible filmmaking in practice: critical and ethnographic perspectives on inclusionism, erracy, and excess.’ It examines collaborative and integrated approaches to accessible cinema, arguing that (neo)liberal approaches that fail to centre disability and deafness end up producing the superficial forms of inclusion and reproducing the social hierarchies that they seek to challenge in the first place
