Research interests
My research is interdisciplinary and involves the study of the material book, digital archives and the ways that mediums of communication influence reader interpretations of lexical content. I am particularly interested in how bibliographic communication practices can be queered for authors and audiences marginalized by heteronormative cultural conventions.
