Biography : 

I am a second year student in the MA in Creative Writing. I received my Honours Bachelor of Arts with minors in Classical Civilization and Creative Expression & Society from University of Toronto. My thesis is a speculative classical reception novel that investigates the portrayal of women in contemporary interpretations of Ancient Greek myth. My project is funded by SSHRC. As an undergraduate student, I reviewed books in the Arts section of The Mike, and now I’m an associate editor at Echolocation!
