I started teaching when I was a graduate student at Cornell. For the Comparative Literature department there, I taught the freshman seminars “Friendship, Love, Community: Relations after Facebook,” “The Future of Religion Is Here and Now: Thinking the Postsecular,” and “Touching Literature.” As a Mellon Fellow at Tufts, I taught the course “Introduction to Contemporary French Thought,” which received a Significant Impact nomination.

At the National University of Singapore, I have taught the following courses:

  • World Literature - Theories, Methods, Texts

  • Sick Lit - Illness in Literature

  • The Genealogy of Affect Theory

  • Autotheory and Contemporary Autofiction

  • Reader-Responsibility: From Reader-Response Theories to “Postcritique”

  • Literary Rejects

  • Rethinking Failure in the 21st Century

  • Critical Reading: Touch in Literature

I also supervise Honors and M.A theses on most of the above topics as well as on queer theory, continental thought, and contemporary literature.

At Emory, these are the courses I’m offering:

  • World Literature and the Question of Citizenship (Fall 2024)

  • Introduction to Contemporary World Literature (Spring 2025)

  • Work Work Work Work Work (Spring 2025/ Fall 2025 - Read the features on Bloomberg here and on Emory News Center here)

  • The End(s) of Work (Spring 2026)
