About
I am a poet, scholar, and psychoanalytic candidate.
I am also a lecturer in English and comparative literature at Columbia University.
I received my BA with distinction in English from Yale College and my PhD in English and interdisciplinary humanities from Princeton University. I am completing my psychoanalytic training at the New York Psychoanalytic Society and Institute, where I see patients for psychotherapy and psychoanalysis through the Treatment Center.
My first book of poems, The Grid, was published by Changes Press in the US and Carcanet Press in the UK. The Grid was shortlisted for the John Pollard Foundation International Poetry Prize and the Anglo-Hellenic League Runciman Award, longlisted for the Michael Murphy Memorial Poetry Prize, and named one of “the best poetry books of 2023” by The Telegraph.
Currently I am writing a history of the British social-research organization Mass-Observation, forthcoming from the University of Chicago Press in the US and Hurst Publishers in the UK.
My poems, essays, and criticism have also appeared or are forthcoming in The Yale Review, History of the Present, The Winter Review, Raritan Quarterly, The Harvard Review, Ploughshares Solos, The New Inquiry, PN Review, and elsewhere.
