My research focuses on the early nineteenth-century national/historical novels written by British women writers. I'm currently working on a dissertation entitled: "Authorship and Authenticity: Jane Porter and the Romantic National/Historical Novel", which explores the construction of women's authorship and authority through paratext in national/historical novels 1800-1820, in addition to women's authorship networks, reception theory and history, and (auto)biography. My other interests include Romantic women's autobiographies, letters, manuscripts, and afterlives, along with Romantic celebrity culture and networks. 

In addition to my research, I also teach 200-level courses for the English program, am the Lead Coordinator for the 18/19C Graduate Research Cluster, an Assistant Director of the Expository Writing Program and Liaison to the UW in the High School Program, and the Organizer of JaneFest 2017.
