Overview

About

I am a settler scholar, recently retired, who lives on Treaty Six and Métis territory. 



Research

Recent research has examined the portrayal of ageing in literature and visual culture, with particular focus how ageing bodies are portrayed in contemporary horror fiction. I have published on Indigenous literatures, portrayals of ageing women in contemporary fiction, Gothic practice as pedagogy, and women's cancer narratives. 

 



Teaching

Recent teaching includes English 125 Indigenous Literatures with students in the Transition Year Program.
