I am a Professor of English at Youngstown State University, where I joined the faculty in 2005. I am currently the Ruth Grace Endowed Professor in English (2024-2027).
My research is focused on eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Scottish poetry, in particular the life and works of Robert Burns. Other areas of interest include laboring-class literature, Scottish fiction, transatlantic studies, women’s travel writings, and reception history.
My teaching interests include working-class literature, eighteenth- and nineteenth-century British literature, poetry, textual criticism, and Greco-Roman mythology. I also regularly teach nineteenth-century novelists such as Jane Austen, James Hogg, William Thackeray, Anthony Trollope, and Walter Scott.
