About

Welcome! I’m an Associate Professor of English at Dalhousie University in Kjipuktuk, Mi’kma’ki: the unceded and ancestral territory of the Mi’kmaw people (Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada). I use the pronouns he/him/his.

My research and teaching focus on early modern English drama, literature, and culture (ca. 1550-1700 CE). I’m also interested in book history, digital humanities, the history of political thought, law and literature, performance studies, and gender and sexuality studies.

I welcome inquiries about graduate student supervision on topics related to the above research interests, and I’m especially invested in supporting the scholarship of working-class, first-generation, and/or low-income students. Please contact me via email with any questions!
