I received a B.A. in English and a B.S. in Mathematics from the University of Florida, as well as an M.A. in English at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. I am currently a Ph.D. Candidate in English with a graduate minor in Gender and Women’s Studies at the University of Illinois. My interests are varied and include American Literature and Culture, Critical Pedagogy, Digital Humanities, Gender and Women’s Studies, and Science and Technology Studies. An interdisciplinary scholar, I have held research fellowships at the Smithsonian Institution’s Dibner Library, the Bakken Library and Museum, and the Illinois Program for Research in the Humanities. During the 2010 – 2011 academic year, I am teaching the Introduction to American Literature to Unit One students (students in a living/learning community at the U of I); teaching technical writing to students in the Aerospace Engineering Senior Design course; working on improving the “Missing Basics” curriculum with members of the iFoundry team in the College of Engineering; volunteering as a tutor and lecturer at Danville Correctional Center; blogging as a HASTAC (Humanities, Arts, Science, and Technology Advanced Collaboratory) Scholar; and editing the completed draft of my dissertation.
