My research explores how vernacular religious poetry was a dynamic medium for communicating complex and original theology in the early Old English period (the seventh to mid-ninth centuries). Before my doctorate at St Edmund Hall, Oxford, where I was the Clarendon and Bruce Mitchell Scholar in Old and Middle English, supervised by Canon Professor Sarah Foot and Professor Francis Leneghan, I completed my MPhil in English Studies (Medieval Period) as the Abelian Scholar at Lady Margaret Hall, Oxford, and I graduated with my BA (Hons) in English from University College London, where I specialised in Old and Middle English.
At Pembroke College, I teach Prelims Paper 2 (Literature in English 650–1350), FHS Paper 2 (Literature in English 1350–1550) as well as FHS Course II Paper 1 (Literature in English, 650–1100) and Course II Paper 2 (Medieval English and Related Literatures, 1066–1550).
