Profile Articles

I am a Research Associate in Scottish Literature at the University of Glasgow's Centre for Robert Burns Studies where I co-lead the project 'The Burns Supper at 225 Years: Scottish Tradition, Global Reinvention', which celebrates the multicultural diversification of the Burns Supper as Living Heritage.

In 2025, I received my AHRC-funded PhD in English Studies from the University of Stirling (with co-supervision from the Universities of Glasgow and Edinburgh). My research is on eighteenth- and nineteenth-century literature, with particular interests in the novel, the history of reading, Scottish Romanticism, women's writing, canon-making, and library history.
