About
I am a doctoral candidate and instructor in the Department of English at Stony Brook University, where my research focuses on how prose writers during the Progressive Era relied on theatrical conventions in order to advance social and political change. I also teach in the First-Year Writing Program at Long Island University–Post. In addition to my academic work on theater, I am a practicing actor and director, and currently serve on the Board of Directors of a local, nonprofit theater in Northport, Long Island. Education
