I teach courses in American literature, first-year writing, and creative writing here at St Francis, including Literature Across Cultures, Intro to Digital Publishing, Telling Our Stories: Theory and Practice of Autobiographical Writing, and Memoir Meets Speculative Fiction. My academic articles cover such topics as speculative fiction; antiracist, multimodal composition pedagogy; the rhetoric of humor; Orhan Pamuk’s My Name is Red; Mark Danielewski’s House of Leaves; Theresa Cha’s Dictee; and the representation of the Caribbean in U.S. popular culture. My most recent article, “Remixing the College Essay: Antiracist and Multimodal Assignments for First-Year Writers,” co-authored with Dr. Felisa Baynes-Ross, Mira Zaman, and Caitlin Cawley, was recently published in Duke University Press’s Pedagogy journal.

I am the author of eight books of poetry, creative nonfiction, and fiction, the most recent of which is Goblin Mode. My book, Women of Fantasy in Their Own Words: Conversations with Contemporary Authors, edited with Sébastien Doubinsky, is forthcoming from Bloomsbury in 2027. My writing has appeared in publications including the Los Angeles Review of Books, Electric Literature, Creative Nonfiction, Lit Hub, the Kenyon Review, the Huffington Post, the Guardian, Salon, and Elle. My work has been most recently anthologized in Embodied: An Intersectional Feminist Comics Poetry Anthology and 36 New York Poets. I serve as the Translation Editor at Hanging Loose Press where I edit the winners of the Loose Translation Award, jointly sponsored by Hanging Loose Press and the MFA program in Creative Writing and Literary Translation of Queens College, CUNY.
