About me

My work spans archival research, filmmaking, and scholarly projects.

My past work has focused on 20th-century feminist theory, through in-depth research into the archives of renowned writer Shere Hite, and investigations about the legal and cultural history of Title IX. I have also focused on 19th and 20th-century U.S. and Latin American history by researching abolitionist women in the U.S. — their practices of resistance, struggles, and contemporary cultural depictions of them — for a 2021 Harvard course, and explored the history of aesthetic cultures in Detroit, Paris, and Santiago for an in-progress novella. My writing work includes criticism, interviews, and film notes, and has appeared in the Harvard Crimson and the Harvard Film Archive. I have received fellowships from the Harvard English Department and Lowell House to support my writing and research. In addition, I have done work on archival films, re-editing footage from existing work (1930s and 1960s U.S. films, 1960s French films, and home videos) to reckon with the relationship between cinema and collective memory.

I am available for freelance research, writing, and editing work — email me!
