As of the fall semester of 2018, I am joining the English Department at the University of Tulsa as Assistant Professor of Nineteenth-Century American Literature. During the upcoming academic year, I will be teaching courses on 19th-century literary history in the Americas, LGBTQ historiography, and the medical humanities. Below I'm attaching syllabi for courses that I have taught and am still developing.
