Hello! I’m busy with my dissertation right now, but I’ll restore my regular website sometime soonish. In the meantime, thanks for visiting, and get in touch if you’d like to chat about research, tv, autistic representation, or growing tomatoes. (I know, that last one doesn’t really fit the theme, but I grew 20 varieties of tomato last summer, and it was amazing.)
