I am currently a Perkins-Cotsen Postdoctoral Fellow in the Princeton Society of Fellows. At Princeton, I teach in the English department and in the interdisciplinary Western Humanities Sequence.

My research spans the theater of Shakespeare and his contemporaries, gender studies, reception and adaptation studies (including theater, film, and the novel), and history of the book. My first book project, Getting Even: Gender, Genre, and the Revenge Plot in Early Modern Drama and Contemporary Film, takes cues from recent films to chart how sixteenth- and seventeenth-century dramas of justice-seeking co-construct gender and genre.

I received my Ph.D. from Harvard University. I hold master's degrees from Harvard and the University of Oxford, as well as a B.A. from Duke University. My academic writing has appeared or is forthcoming in venues including Shakespeare StudiesShakespeare SurveyShakespeare, Notes and Queries, The Seventeenth Century Journal, English Literary Renaissance, and The Review of English Studies; I have also written academic reviews for Shakespeare Bulletin and Renaissance Quarterly. Beyond the academy, my writing has appeared in The DriftHarvard Review, The Rambling, The Fence, Public Books, and Los Angeles Review of Books. I am working on a new introduction to Much Ado About Nothing for the upcoming Oxford World's Classics editions of Shakespeare.
