About Me

I live in Manhattan, New York. I received my JD in 2026 from Columbia Law School, where I received Academic Honors. I was an Articles Editor for the Columbia Law Review and a research assistant focused on antidiscrimination and administrative law. 

 

I am also a PhD student with the Columbia University Department of History (where I focus on the history of the Atlantic world and received the Provost's Diversity Fellowship).

 

Previously, I received my Bachelor's and Master's degrees in History from Yale University in 2020 with a thesis titled "Debts of Empire: Re-centering Credit in the West Indies."

 

My historical scholarship is primarily concerned with the history of slavery and its afterlives in the scope of "vast Early America." My legal scholarship poses this question and moral questions about private law and the historically constructed identity categories we occupy.

​

I am a freelance critic. My critical writing focuses on anticolonial and feminist concerns, particularly on the dual roles of violence and vulnerability in the world. I take a wide array of subjects, including poetry, fiction, and academic texts.

​

I have extensive experience in copyediting and legal research. I accept freelance jobs in these areas as my time allows. I can also be reached by publishers who are interested in having me review their publications. Please contact me below.
