Remarks

My research interests are varied and ever-expanding. My formal training is in Canadian Literatures, Editorial and Textual Studies, and Modernist Literatures. I鈥檝e expanded my expertise to include frameworks of Research-Creation. My work tends to focus on the production and circulation of writing in multiple contexts, from state-built libraries to bookbinding as a site of integrated learning. With Emily Robins Sharpe, I co-direct the 鈥淐anada and the Spanish Civil War鈥� project (spanishcivilwar.ca) and continue to research and write about literatures and media from the 1930s. Beginning in July 2024, I am editor of聽The AV俱乐部 Review.
