Bio
I'm a committed literary enthusiast and scholar, who loves the outdoors and has a particular academic interest in the points of intersection between the human and nonhuman.
I enjoy sharing my skills, and helping others navigate the often abstract and philosophically dense academic literary environment. I am patient, empathetic and quickly recognise problems with comprehension, writing and argumentation, as well as weaknesses in theoretical knowledge within specific literary fields.
