New Junior Deans

Abi is a DPhil student from India, studying at the Department of Education. She’s doing research on handloom weavers exploring themes of informal learning, skill-based practices, and labour; having always been intrigued by the diverse contexts where learning takes place and the many different forms of knowledge. Her previous experience includes teaching at an alternative residential school in a forest, researching monasteries on a riverine island, and working as a higher education administrator at a liberal arts university. Here at Harris Manchester College, she and Katie will be part of a dedicated welfare team and are looking forward to building a convivial and enabling space with, and for, everyone.
