Department of English

I’m an English Ph.D. candidate at the University of Florida. I hold a bachelor’s degree in Letters and a master’s degree in American Studies from the University of Turin, Italy. My interests include the Black Atlantic, post-colonialism, critical theory, diaspora studies, and historiography of capitalism and I usually use these notions and territories as groundings for world literature courses, or an extended British and American literature. I am also a father of a black fluffy cat and if you come to Gainesville, you’ll probably catch me running in one of the trails in town.

Fields of Study:

• Black Atlantic Diaspora
• Critical Theory
• Gender and Sexuality
• Narratology
