Research interests bridge the intersection of spatial mobilities, social networks, family and intimate life. Using mainly social survey methods, social network analysis and sequence analysis, my work advances new ways of studying how physical distance and mobility behaviours, such as travelling, commuting, moving or using digital mobile technologies, relate to family relationships and family networks.
I am currently working on two large collaborative projects: (1) Spatial mobility skills, conjugal networks and conjugal quality (PI) on how individuals’ spatial mobility skills and conjugal network overlap moderate the influence of residential mobility on couples; (2) Personal networks of young adults in Switzerland: Social capital, educational and work aspirations (Co-I) on the role of young people’s personal relationships and personal networks (including their geography) on their educational and work aspirations. I am also involved in international research collaboration with various network scholars (Andreas Herz, Claire Bidart, Marion Maisonobe, Benjamin Bach) on advanced methods for analysing and mapping the geography of personal networks.
