Profile

I grew up and went to school in America, in the state of Maine, and moved to New York City to attend Barnard College, Columbia University, where I earned a BA in English Literature.  I worked in publishing in New York and then completed an MA in Modernism at the University of East Anglia in 2002, writing a dissertation on Virginia Woolf, Hegel, and Freud. I then moved back to Brooklyn and worked for the New York affiliate of the National Endowment for the Humanities. In 2004, I moved from Brooklyn to London to begin my PhD on Hegel, his reception in the 20th Century, and psychoanalysis at Queen Mary.  I became a permanent member of staff at QM in 2012.
