How do we come to be who we are? How do we tell our own stories? What can we learn from each other? What does it mean to be a human community?

These questions inform both my pedagogy and my scholarly trajectory. Whether we are analyzing the meaning of a text or considering fine nuances of French grammar, I aim to make the classroom a space of individual and collective exploration, critical reflection, and dialogue. The study of literature to which my research is devoted is but another form of this interpersonal engagement. With a specific focus on contemporary French literature and literature from North Africa and its diaspora, I study the ways in which personal and collective selves find their voices in relation to history, memory, gender, race, sexuality, and culture.
