Past Affiliations
- Connecticut
College: A small liberal arts college
in New London, Connecticut where I did my B.A. in Anthropology with
a minor in French and a concentration in Italian. My professors
at Conn College taught me to love learning and inspired me to pursue
a graduate degree in literature.
- Institute
for American Universities: I attended the IAU program in
Avignon, France during my junior year abroad and still keep in touch
with my host family and the friends I made there!
- Boston College:
I did my M.A. and my Ph.D. in the Department of Romance Languages
and Literatures at Boston College, which is neither in Boston (it's
in Chestnut Hill) nor a College (it's a comprehensive university).
I also taught French there as a Teaching Fellow and worked for the
International Programs office.
- Ecole Normale Superieure:
I was a Chateaubriand
Fellow in 1994-95 and spent the year doing research at the Bibliotheque
Nationale and living at the ENS in Paris. The ENS is one of
the prestigious "grandes ecoles" and offered me an amazing
opportunity to meet other doctoral researchers and literature professors.
- McNair
Scholars Program at Salem
State College: A TRIO program funded by the federal government
to encourage underrepresented minority/low-income and first-generation
college students to pursue a Ph.D. which employed me as Academic
and Counseling Coordinator for two years.
- Mercyhurst
College
: A small
liberal arts college in Erie, Pennsylvania where I taught for two
years in the Department of World Languages and Cultures.
