I am also a passionate teacher. Recently I worked as Visiting Instructor at Mount Holyoke College where I taught “Western Music: 1950s to Today” and worked for several years as Teaching Assistant at Brandeis University. At Brandeis, I have contributed to courses such as Exploring Music, Global Soundscapes, and Music in Film. I also delivered guest lectures on topics including the canon, gender, 16th and 17th-century Italy, music in the convents, and notable films like 2001: A Space Odyssey and Entr’acte. Previously, at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, I was a TA for the Music History Sequence and Music Appreciation, and served as a Primary Instructor for the Performing and Visual Arts Residential Academic Program.

For the academic year of 2023-2024, Anna Valcour and I pioneered an interdisciplinary writing group that met every Monday for the whole day to work together, but individually, on our writing. It was a powerful experience and it fostered a great sense of community across departments; we achieved significant successes by holding each other accountable and dedicating a full day of writing a week.

Last but not least, I work as a Publishing Associate at Brandeis University Press, helping with acquisition in music and environmental studies. My role also includes serving as the Website Designer and Manager, where I have completely redesigned the Press’s website to enhance user experience and accessibility. Additionally, I create book trailers and design promotional materials, including ads for major publications, to amplify the reach and impact of our titles.
