I'm a scholar, feminist, and literary critic. I research and teach on the literature and the political and cultural archives of the 20th century, and my work is interested broadly in the poetics of thought. I have a central interest in the poetics of political thought, and my first book project, Abstract, Literal, Reductive: How Feminism Thought unpacks the fascination "big" (systematic, symptomatic, paranoid) political theorizing has on the imagination. It's a new reading and history of the feminisms of the 60s and 70s, one that is against recuperating people, movements, or histories, and for recuperating styles and forms of thought. Recently, I've been working on a related project, a history of the recent, provincial, industry-driven non-concept of "nonfiction."

I'm currently a Humanities Teaching Fellow at the University of Chicago, where I earned my PhD in English in 2024. I teach courses in literature and Gender and Sexuality Studies that introduce students to formalist, reception-oriented, and historically minded ways of encountering the recent past.
