Research & Teaching

I hold a BA in English and American studies from the University of Graz, an MSc in Creative Writing from the University of Edinburgh, and I recently completed a PhD researching gender equality in contemporary Scottish writing and publishing at the University of Stirling in partnership with University of Glasgow and Scottish Book Trust.

I recently completed a Fellowship at the University of Münster, where I investigated existing research on gender equality in the German language publishing industry.

You can find my report on gender equality in the Scottish publishing sector here.

Most recent publication:

‘Speculative Archiving of a Potential Future Literary Award: Embedded Publishing Studies Research’. Journal of Cultural Analysis and Social Change 4, no. 2 (11 December 2019): 11. https://doi.org/10.20897/jcasc/6355.

I have taught at University of Stirling in the English Department, Edinburgh Napier University’s Creative Writing and Publishing Studies department, and at University of Münster, Germany.
