About:

My research focuses on contemporary poetics, mostly in a North American context, with a specific focus on gender and sexuality. I am the author of Poetry Matters: Neoliberalism, Affect, and the Posthuman in Twenty-First Century North American Feminist Poetics (University of Iowa Press, 2018) and co-editor of co-editor of Prismatic Publics: Innovative Canadian Women’s Poetry and Poetics (Coach House, 2009). I have published numerous articles on Canadian and American writers including Syd Zolf, Juliana Spahr, Sina Queyras, Margaret Christakos, and Gail Scott. I co-direct a research project called Museum Queeries that examines queer and two-spirit representation and engagement in museums. Museum Queeries is part of a SSHRC Partnership project called Thinking Through the Museum with research partners from Canada, the United States, Poland, South Africa and the Netherlands. Current projects include an edited collection on queer and Two-Spirit representation in Museums (Jagiellonian University Press, forthcoming), a special issue of Canadian Literature on feminist criticism (2024), and a Handbook of Gender, Poetics and Sexuality (in development). I teach courses on queer literature, women’s writing, poetics, and cultural theory.
