I have degrees in Theology, Modern Hebrew, and Judaic Studies. I teach courses on Hebrew Bible/Old Testament primarily, but also courses on themes such as religion and violence, religion and peace building, pandemics in the Bible, and sexuality in the Bible.

While my thesis was about the book of Isaiah, my recent project is about the history of interpretation of the Hebrew Bible narratives about Deborah and Huldah in Jewish and Christian sources between 300 B.C.E. and 500 C.E. with particular attention to the importance attached to the prophetesses in new cultural contexts.

My most recent research interest is about the relationship between narratives about artificial intelligence and narratives about creation in the book of Genesis. Here I look at the fundamental concepts (imago dei/hominis, personhood) that underpin the enterprise of creating an entity that bears an essence of the creator, but which is fundamentally different from the creator.
