About Me
I am an Assistant Professor of English at Mount Marty University, where I specialize in early modern literature and political theology. My research examines how literary and rhetorical forms intersect with the development of institutional and economic structures in the seventeenth century. I am also developing a TEI-based digital edition of The Letters of John Chamberlain, building an open-access archive of early modern correspondence. My work contributes to ongoing scholarly conversations in early modern studies, political theory, and the history of capitalism.
Currently (August 2025)
- Revising Empire of the Unincorporated for submission with a university press.
- Developing course materials for News Writing and Adolescent/Young Adult Literature courses.
- Building contributor tools for Early Modern Letters.
