The dread of nuclear apocalypse began soaking into my bones the night my parents let me stay up late to watch The Day After. My research examines the material culture exchanges between feminist anti-proliferation activists across trans-national boundaries during the final climax of the Cold War. I am the author of the following research papers:
* “Strange Eons: Nuclear Waste, the Human Interference Task Force, and the Ethics of Applied Imagination”
* ”The Last Millions: Apocalypse and Victorian Historiography in William Hope Hodgson’s The Night Lands”
* “No Place of Honor: The Waste Isolation Pilot Plant, Knowledge Arks, and Control Over the Last Message from the Anthropocene”
My fiction appeared in Analog Magazine.
