She is also Assistant Professor of Foreign Literatures and Linguistics at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev. She is the author of How Close Reading Made Us (SUNY, 2024), and her current project traces how psychoanalytic object relations theory renews debates about reading practices, subject formation, and self-writing in contemporary American literature and theory.
