I am an American student and a medievalist; my academic research is mainly the transmission of Ancient, Byzantine and Islamic knowledge into the Latin West, but I am also interested in Western intellectual and cultural history more generally.

My undergraduate degree is in Greek and Latin (B.A. Kenyon College, 2005). I worked on Hellenistic Greek poetry, and Theocritus in particular, but I also spent a number of years on Sanskrit and Sanskrit literature.
