About

I am an assistant professor of English at the University of Georgia, USA. I was previously an assistant professor of medieval and Tudor literature at the University of Groningen, the Netherlands, and I held a Killam Postdoctoral Research Fellowship at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada. I received my PhD in English from the University of Toronto.

My work on manuscripts has been supported by numerous international grants and fellowships, including a Schallek Fellowship from the Medieval Academy of America and the Richard III Society, American Branch, the Huntington Library, and the Bodleian Library.

My research examines the literature and material texts of late medieval England in a transcultural context. My book project, How French Made English Books, 1380-1542, examines the importance of French to developing vernacular ideas of the book in late medieval and Tudor England. My current work includes a census of all French manuscripts known to have been in England in the fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries and a reassessment of the role of migrant scribes working in England in the later Middle Ages.
