I am an Associate Professor of English at Salisbury University focusing on the environmental humanities. My writing interests include narratives of climate change, environmental justice, and Indigenous literatures. I received my PhD from the University of Virginia in 2017 and my BA from Brown in 2009. In 2019-2020 I was a fellow at the Jackman Humanities Institute of the University of Toronto.

I am currently a Co-Principal Investigator with the Agricultural Futures Archive, a Mellon Foundation research project exploring farming and the environment in the Mid-Atlantic region.

My scholarly work appears in Resilience: A Journal of the Environmental Humanities and The Global South, and my journalism, essays, and reviews appear in Slate, Orion, The Los Angeles Review of Books and elsewhere. My fiction appears in The Literary Review.
