LEARNING DESIGN

I work at the intersection of literature, history, psychology, economics, and cultural theory, with a sustained focus on how power is constructed, reproduced, and contested in cultural and institutional life.

My teaching and learning design invite students to examine how institutions shape subjects, and how individuals and small groups negotiate, resist, or reconfigure those arrangements of power in everyday cultural spaces.

My work draws on critical traditions in Marxist theory, cultural studies, post-structuralism, and discourse analysis, framing culture as a contested terrain rather than a neutral backdrop. I use theory not as a doctrine to master but as a shared vocabulary for transdisciplinary inquiry.

Students employ this vocabulary to articulate their own positions within contemporary regimes of power, making connections across media, film, literature, and social practice. The units showcased here are designed for early university and advanced secondary contexts, particularly for students who want to think seriously about subjectivity, culture, and the human condition in the twenty-first century.
