I’m very pleased to announce that beginning in Fall 2021, I will be an Assistant Professor of English at Mississippi University for Women in lovely Columbus, MS. I’m excited to join a team of professors who are passionate not only about their own research, but also teaching an incredible generation of future scholars and well-rounded people.

From their website: “Founded in 1884 as the first public college for women in the United States, The W is a tradition-rich university that has been home to such noted personalities as Pulitzer Prize-winning author Eudora Welty, among others. Forty years ago, The W opened its doors to men.”
