Biography

I am a seventh year PhD Candidate in English, planning to finish my dissertation and defend by the end of this year. My dissertation focuses on depictions of science and gender in late nineteenth century imperial Gothic fiction. I have worked with the Writing Center in multiple capacities since 2020; in addition to enrollment and appointment tutoring, and asynchronous document review, I have worked as a writing tutor for the past year in the Hanson Center for Communication at the College of Engineering. I have assisted with multiple thesis/dissertation bootcamps for Engineering during the academic year, as well as multiple Writing Center summer writing groups, such as WriteON and the dissertation bootcamp.
