I work at Hertford College as Fellow and Tutor in English, and at the University of Oxford as a lecturer in the Faculty of English Language and Literature.
My research and teaching interests are in early modern drama and Shakespeare. I am currently working with Andy Kesson and contributors on defining Elizabethan print popularity, for publication by Ashgate in 2013. I am also working on the Shakespeare First Folio and on the emerging conventions of early modern print drama.
You can read about my publications, follow my podcasts, or email me.
