Research summary

My research interests include modernism, modernist literary theory, urban studies, theories of everyday life, and more recently the music of Joanna Newsom. I've taught widely in both English and Writing Studies departments at a variety of Canadian post-secondary institutions, including UBC, Langara, and The King's University. My courses focus on the city in literature, technology studies, science and speculative fiction, and essay writing fundamentals.
