Research Interests: Medieval Literature, Trans & Queer Studies
Before coming to the CUNY Graduate Center, I completed a B.A. in English Adolescent Education and an M.A. in Literature from CUNY Hunter College. My dissertation research focuses on fantasies about non-normative genders and atypical sexual anatomies and considers how their fictitious representation in literature contribute to understanding the possibilities for human bodies. I also serve as co-chair of the Pearl Kibre Medieval Study and a board adviser for the Trans* Youth Equality Foundation.
