I am an educator and researcher whose work focuses on the intersections of class, literature, and pedagogy.
I hold a Ph.D. in English from Brandeis University, an MA in English Literature from Loyola Marymount University, and a BA in American Literature and Culture from UCLA. My doctoral dissertation, Performing Class: Domestic Labor in Working-Class Modernism examines intersectional aspects of class, race, gender, and sexuality to offer a new understanding of how modernist narrative practices both obscure and foreground domestic work in writing by Virginia Woolf, D.H. Lawrence, and Zora Neale Hurston.
Alongside this research is a deep investment in furthering initiatives that support diversity, equity, and inclusion in higher education pedagogy, institutions, and policy.
I teach social justice-focused writing seminars at Boston University.
