Biographical Text

My primary professional interest is in teaching digital methods to humanities scholars. That's an interest I'm currently pursuing as THATCamp Coordinator, contracting independently with CHNM to provide support for THATCamp organizers and fellows, but it's an interest I've also pursued for the Digital History Across the Curriculum project at NYU and as a Council on Library and Information Resources Postdoctoral Fellow at NCSU. I earned my doctorate in English from the University of Virginia in 2004, where I encoded texts in TEI for the Rossetti Archive and the Electronic Text Center. My dissertation is a history of the villanelle, the nineteen-line poetic form of Dylan Thomas's "Do not go gentle into that good night"; I am currently at work on a book about the poetics of Twitter.
