| Introduction | I am a cultural historian in my late twenties working at a new university in the UK. I'm intrigued by the connections between the spiritual and the sexual and clumsily pursue that nexus in my research and teaching. |
| Interests | A rather schizophrenic combination of ascetic and decadent aesthetics in literature, art history, and landscape: explaining my obsession with deserts, oceans and minimalist art; and all things camp, baroque and kitsch. |
| Favorite movies | Velvet Goldmine, C.R.A.Z.Y., Casablanca, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, Moulin Rouge, |
