Teaching Interests
As a faculty member at North Carolina Wesleyan, I often have the chance to teach across traditional disciplinary boundaries, as I do in my course on 19th- through 21st-century British literature which focuses on the development of British national identity from 1800 to the present. Moreover, I appreciate that NCWU maintains small class sizes so that students can forge long-lasting professional relationships with their instructors and peers. I not only enjoy mentoring English majors until they graduate鈥攁nd sometimes beyond鈥攂ut also working with them on projects and events for our chapter of the International English Honor Society,听Sigma Tau Delta, which invites our majors to make the fullest use of their studies. Was honored to win听North Carolina Wesleyan's Exemplary Teacher of the Year Award in 2025.
I鈥檓 serving as editor of NCWU鈥檚 undergraduate research journal, , and have been a member of the听Wesleyan Singers since 2019.
Research
My scholarly work has appeared in Victorian Studies,听Victorian Literature and Culture, Victorian Review, Victoriographies,听Oxford Bibliographies,听Pedagogy, The Journal of Popular Culture, and other venues.
