I am currently a Ph.D Candidate in the Department of Near Eastern Languages and Civilizations (NELC) at Harvard University and a Part-Time Lecturer in the Department of International Literary and Cultural Studies (ILCS) at Tufts University. 

I recently published an article on TheTorah.com ("Moses the Lawgiver? Not For the Rabbis") and a review of Michael L. Satlow's An Enchanted World: The Shared Religious Landscape of Late Antiquity on H-Judaic (H-Net Reviews). 

Jewish Studies and literature have always been my passions. In college, I majored in English Literature and wrote my honors thesis about novelizations of the Rabbi Akiva stories. I then did an MA at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, where I wrote seminar papers about the narratives surrounding the converts Helena of Adiabene and Aquila of Sinope. At Harvard, my dissertation ("A Lack of Visions: Rabbinic Conversion Narratives in Comparative Context") will continue this project by gathering and analyzing all rabbinic narratives about conversion to Judaism.
