I am a writer and scholar based in New York City, an associate professor at the University of Connecticut, and a 2024 National Fellow with New America. I’m represented by Tanya McKinnon at McKinnon Literary.
My work investigates how ableism structures our lives by examining the experiences and expertise of family caregivers, disabled people, and their communities, especially at the intersection of technology and medicine.
My work on cochlear implants has been noted in The New York Times, and my writing on the care crisis featured in The American Prospect, The Conversation, and the Los Angeles Review of Books. I am also a nationally certified American Sign Language Interpreter.
