I'm a graduate student at Kean University, currently in my second year of the English and Writing Studies M.A. program under Dr. Mia Zamora. I'll be working on my thesis next semester, and it will be centered on themes of childhood in dystopian novels throughout the 20th century into the present day. I want to learn to use technology to compare themes and track trends across multiple works. I'm new to the DH, but very interested in how digital methodologies will refresh literary studies.
