I am a Professor of English at the University of Maryland in College Park, USA. I am also part of the faculty at the Rare Book School in Charlottesville. At Maryland, I co-founded and direct our BookLab. I have served on SHARP's Board of Directors since 2019 and have chaired the Board since 2021. If elected to a second term I am particularly interested in participating in the emerging process of rethinking the annual conference, to take advantage of new technologies and enable more inclusivity while also preserving the unique energy and experience of our in-person events.
