I have recently graduated from UKC after studying for three years on the BA Social Anthropology course. I am interested in memory and how it affects the relationships people have with their families. I have carried out fieldwork in the Kent area exploring the dynamic relationships which occur within a highly competitive sports team. Last year I was privileged to win the Roger Just award for the best anthropological film and was honoured to be labelled an eminent visual anthropologist of the future.

Jessica has conducted fieldwork in the US; Samoa; Mali; and southeastern England, bridging anthropology with studies in consumer research; photojournalism; human rights; and public policy. Her most recent work, titled “Violence in the System: A Critical Analysis of the UK Asylum Process” ties asylum seeker and refugee narratives to frameworks of violence and provides policy recommendations based on these ethnographic accounts.
In anticipation of an alumni event in May 2018, we have added basic information from the 2010 screening.
