About
I am currently a PhD student in anthropology at The Graduate Center, CUNY conducting research on how Central Asian migrants are reshaping rural areas in post-Soviet Russia. More broadly, I am interested in the diversification of transnational labor migration networks between Central Asia, Russia, Turkey and South Korea. Beyond my academic work, I am also active as a freelance journalist focusing on topics related to youth, migration and popular culture in Central Asia.
