I am a PhD in Marketing, specialising in the study of consumer culture. I wrote my thesis on the consumption of extraordinary experiences and what the current trend for endurance running can tell us about contemporary neoliberal culture.
In my spare time, I am a digital activist. My goal is to make people better consumers by advising them how to consume less and more sustainably.
