I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Religion and Program in Judaic Studies at Princeton University.  My work is rooted in priestly literature, but takes a number of different directions. My earlier projects focus on the literary representation of sacrifice and sacred space in the Hebrew Bible, while my current work turns to questions of numerate education and mathematical thought in biblical and Second Temple literatures. I pay particular attention to the interplay between ritual and narrative, compositional history, and the relationship between texts and historical religious and scribal practices. 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.
