At Alabama, my primary teaching occurs at the graduate level as part of the Hudson Strode Program in Renaissance Studies. My teaching interests and offerings include Shakespeare, Tudor and Stuart Drama, seventeenth-century literature, early modern women's writing, and feminist theory.
I also direct graduate students in both the Strode MA and the PhD programs and serve on a range of student committees. For a complete listing of the courses I've taught (both at Alabama and, previously, at UNCG and Fordham) and the graduate committees I've chaired (or on which I've served), please see my CV.
