I worked as a law and English professor 10+ years at UNC prior to leaving to work full-time as a novelist, journalist, lawyer, and legal consultant.
"Because I work, among other things, as a journalist writing analytical pieces of culture and politics, my training in WS (Women's Studies, now GSF) has been critical to my success; the intersectional approach to politics ensured that I learned how institutions and structures worked in U.S. and around the world, and I bring that knowledge to bear in my work every day."
