I am a theatre, performance, and cultural studies scholar, a university teacher, an author, and a freelance writer.
My research focuses on multiple interconnected areas: performance studies; sport and performance; Broadway musical theatre; circus studies; affect theory; spectacle performance; performing gender and sexuality; performative utterances; theatre audience studies; and the impacts of community-engaged writing, theatre, and film projects.
I am passionate about researching the epistemological, affective, cultural, and socio-political effects of different types of popular contemporary performance for both performers and audience members. I am also invested in exploring the relationship between discourse, embodiment, and operations of power in the twenty-first century and curious about the impacts of writing pedagogy and practice.
