I completed my Ph.D. at the University of Exeter in 2011, where I also gained a B.A. and M.A. My doctoral thesis was entitled ‘America Seen: British and American Nineteenth Century Travels in the United States’. In 2009, I was selected for the competitive U.S.-U.K. Fulbright Commission American Studies Summer Institute at New York University. I have worked on the Transatlantic Exchanges project – an interdisciplinary collaboration between the Universities of Exeter and Plymouth – which has resulted in a chapter for a forthcoming book publication. I was appointed as a Teaching Fellow at Exeter in 2011 to teach African American literature primarily, as well as Critical Practice and Introduction to American Literature. I previously taught several modules from 2007-2010 during my Ph.D.
