About

I am a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of English and Cultural Studies at McMaster University, where I am researching the cultural and literary construction of time in Canada. My dissertation argues that social power relations in Canada are deeply tied to the cultural models of time that have been assumed and rejected throughout the country's history, and that Canadian literature and other arts serve a vital function in both witnessing and questioning these relationships.

My academic writing has appeared in English Studies in Canada, Canadian Literature, Studies in Canadian Literature, Mosaic, Callaloo, and other collections. My poems and creative nonfiction essays have appeared in Rampike, Prairie Fire, The Saving Bannister, The Antigonish Review: The Poet Grow-Op, Canadian Literature, Terrain.org, ISLE, and The Best Canadian Poetry in English 2011.

I am a co-editor with Lisa Szabo-Jones for The Goose, the publication of ALECC (Association for Literature, Environment, and Culture in Canada).
