Biography
I am an interdisciplinary scholar whose work connects three distinct fields within the humanities: religious studies, gender studies and digital humanities. I received my Ph.D. in Religious Studies in August 2023 from Claremont Graduate University, where I specialized in Religion and Gender and Religions of North America, with a focus on Christianities. I bring an intersectional approach which allows me to explore the ways in which things like race and gender not only shape the lives of individuals, but also how they experience and perform their religion. I have trained in oral history and ethnography as these qualitative research methods enable me to center the lived experiences of women, who are too often the objects rather than subjects of religious narratives.
