Researcher and Instructor
of Early Modern English Literature

Researcher  ·  Educator

I am a Ph.D. candidate and instructor of composition and British literature in the Department of English at Loyola University Chicago. Prior to matriculating into doctoral studies at Loyola, I earned a Master of Arts in English at Loyola University Chicago (conferred 2017) and a Bachelor of Arts in English Literature and Political Science at Miami University of Ohio (conferred 2016). My previous research interests in linguistic and performance theories culminated in my peer-reviewed article on Christopher Marlowe’s Doctor Faustus (Text and Presentation, 2018). My current research brings posthumanist theory to bear on sixteenth- and seventeenth-century English literature and vice versa. As such, I am currently crafting a dissertation project that uses methodologies prioritized in posthumanism to explore ethical, political, and ecological appeals in early modern drama, poetry, and prose.

Researching & Teaching
​Early Modern Drama

As a researcher and educator, I examine the literary and performative elements of early modern drama encountered in print and performance for more than four hundred years. My work interrogates how various communities, both past and present, have used Shakespearean poetry to study and interpret intercultural relations.
