I am a scholar of ancient Greek literature, political and feminist theory, and carceral studies, and my current research turns to the tragedies of Aeschylus, Sophocles, and Euripides as resources to problematize and contest the Western legal paradigm of retributive justice. I earned my doctorate in Comparative Literature at the University of Michigan in July 2021, with a dissertation titled Beyond Retribution: Re-theorizing Justice through Greek Tragedy and certificates in Graduate Teaching and Classical Reception Studies. I have ten semesters of undergraduate teaching experience in the departments of Comparative Literature, Classics, and English, including first-year and upper-level writing seminars, special topics courses, and remote instruction. I am currently teaching in the Upper School English department at Milken Community School in Los Angeles, California.
