About

Welcome to my page. Here you'll find information about my research interests, which broadly encompass the intersections of literature, philosophy, and cultural theory. My work often explores the relationships between canonical texts and contemporary thought, particularly through the lens of thinkers and figures such as Deleuze and Shakespeare. I am inspired by a desire to uncover new perspectives on familiar works and to engage with the ways in which classic literature can inform a better understanding of the world we live in today.

My publications reflect these interests, ranging from explorations of Shakespeare's engagement with theory and political themes to analyses of contemporary literature through a Deleuzian framework. Recently, I have been focusing on the connections between spatiality, resistance, and literary discourse, as evidenced by my work on Rabih Alameddine.

I invite you to explore this page for more details on my published work, ongoing research projects, and more. I hope this site serves as a valuable resource for anyone interested my work, and in sharing thoughts and ideas both within and beyond these fields.
