I'm a Lecturer for the Structured Liberal Education program at Stanford. I recently graduated from the PhD program in English at Harvard and now live in San Francisco.

My current book project is about the Cultural Cold War, international sport, and the Mexico City Olympics of 1968. That research is also the basis for an online digital-humanities project (in development).

I currently teach classes on modern odysseys (for Stanford English) and literature of the world wars (for Continuing Studies). I've also run a few World Literature classes online for edX, and I’ve created an educational board game about modernist art and literature called Manifesto!

You can read more about my research in Slate, The Washington Post, Public Books, and n+1, about my teaching in the Harvard Crimson and on Entitled Opinions, or about my Humanities-advocacy for undergraduates in The Chronicle of Higher Education.
