PERSONAL STATEMENT
I specialize in sexuality studies and rhetorical criticism. In particular my work examines various ways that sexual identities are discursively constructed and materially enacted and the conditions under which those identities change. I also teach writing with a focus on analysis, argumentation, and style.
