I am a scholar of literary and cultural studies, specialising in U.S. women’s writing. I earned my Ph.D. in 2018 from the University of Connecticut. I also hold a M.A. in American Studies and a B.A. in English and American Literature. A past recipient of the Modern Language Association (MLA) Florence Howe Essay Prize, my scholarship has appeared in Signs, Legacy, J19: The Journal of Nineteenth Century Americanists, and Journal of American Studies, among other journals. I recently edited the Broadview critical edition of Charlotte Perkins Gilman’s 1898 treatise Women & Economics.

I am currently working on a monograph entitled “Professions of Intimacy: Work, Reproduction and the Professional Woman in the Progressive-Era United States.”

I joined Manchester Metropolitan University in 2021. I enjoy teaching across genres and periods. I am an experienced writing instructor and an advocate for expanding composition instruction in the humanities curriculum.
