I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Religion and Program in Judaic Studies at Princeton University. My work focuses primarily on priestly literature, with an emphasis on the literary representation of sacrifice and sacred space in the Hebrew Bible and Second Temple literature. I pay particular attention to the interplay between ritual and narrative, compositional history, and the relationship between texts and historical religious practice. I received my Ph.D. in Hebrew Bible from The University of Chicago, M.A.s from Yale University and Boston College, and a B.A. in English literature from Northeastern University.
On this website, I have collected materials related to my research and teaching, as well as a number of resources related to the use of technology in biblical studies. There are links to my published articles, abstracts for current projects, course proposals and syllabi for classes I have taught or developed, resources I have created for a number of courses, and slides and handouts from various lectures.
