Peer review is often invisible work, but a vital part of keeping academic research rigorous and collaborative. Grateful for the opportunity to review for Wiley journals this past year.

Two of my co-edited volumes are being reissued in paperback: Land and the Mortgage: History, Culture, Belonging (April 2026), and Cryptopolitics: Exposure, Concealment, and Digital Media (September 2026). Glad to see both books reach new readers!

Glad to share that my chapter, “Rotating Credit Associations and Debt,” is part of the forthcoming Routledge Handbook on Debt. The handbook brings together interdisciplinary perspectives from around the world, examining how debt shapes power relations, inequality, and social change.
