I am a writer, editor, and teacher.

I work at Dalhousie University, where I am also the editor of The Dalhousie Review and Associate Director of the Centre for Contemporary Writing. With Eric Schmaltz, I run COMMUNIQUÉ BOOKS.

With Invisible Books, I edit the Throwback Series, which re-publishes out-of-print Canadian books.

I’m co-editor, with Emily Robins Sharpe, of the Canada and the Spanish Civil War Project and the Spanish Civil War Series of scholarly editions with the University of Ottawa Press.

I live in Kjipuktuk/Halifax with my partner, our daughter, the dog named Cricket, and the cat named YoYo.
