PhD Thesis

 

I study the  strategies for healing in contemporary fiction by Indigenous writers from what is today known as Canada and the United States, in order to develop culturally-appropriate and trauma-informed educational guidelines for non-Native educators working with Indigenous students.

Research Projects

 

My other research projects include the imagery of hunger and cannibalism in contemporary Indigenous horror, the commodification of Indigenous monsters in Euro-American TV series, and artistic installations memorializing MMIWG2S (Missing, Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, and 2 Spirit).
