About Me

I am a lecturer at the University of Bristol and a BBC/AHRC New Generation Thinker. I specialise in Victorian literature, the cultural and literary histories of seas and coasts, and the Gothic from the eighteenth century to the present. I am interested in intersections between ecologies, queerness, and neurodivergence.

​

My first monograph looks at the representation of Cornwall in nineteenth century literature. My second monograph will investigate ecocolonial seascapes in the Victorian novel.

Please feel free to get in contact with any questions, suggestions, or ideas for collaborations.
