I am a Cultural Studies PhD student at George Mason University. Currently, I am working on two fields: Marxist political economy and science and technology studies.

I teach Cultural Studies 320: Globalization of Culture. I have the pleasure of working with some excellent and inquisitive students.

I'm also involved in the planning of a graduate conference on the historical and cultural manifestations of violence in the fall of 2008.

News and Updates

Along with Vicki Watts, I have a book project underway: The Politics of Cultural Programming In Public Spaces. We are accepting contributions for potential chapters.

Look for my forthcoming paper, "YouTube_as_archive: who will curate this digital wunderkammer?" in the International Journal of Cultural Studies.

Along with Sean Andrews, I recently completed the redesign of the GMU Cultural Studies PhD program webpage - see it here.

I have a new article, "Something is stirring in the East: Racial identity, confronting the 'other,' and miscegenation in Othello and The Lord of the Rings." This is now available as a chapter in Shakespeare and Tolkien: Essays on Shared Themes and Language from MacFarland.
