Professional:

I am an associate professor of English, specializing in the early modern period. I teach courses on Shakespeare, Milton, Renaissance Drama, and Seventeenth Century Literature. 

This is a link to my vita.

 Scholarly:

My main research interests involve English representations of the Dutch in the early modern period. I also work on the intersection of the somatic and the political, with a special interest in bodily suffering and the body politic. Recently, ideas about nostalgia have also become important in my work.

Academic:

This term I am teaching the BritLit Survey, Shakespeare, Intro to Lit and Intro to Graduate Studies. The gamut, really!
