I write about weird stuff

I was raised on horror movies and comic books and have continued dabbling in those early loves ever since. In the meantime, I earned a few degrees (including a Ph.D. from Pennsylvania State University) and found myself living, teaching, and writing in Syracuse, NY. My academic work and writing can be found in various places but this website is mainly devoted to my works about horror.

In addition to teaching and writing, I spent 5 years as host of “Classic Movie Night” on WCNY and 2 years hosting Pop Life for WAER.

Outside of work, I spend time wandering around the woods looking for witches, maniacs, and new ways to injure myself.
