Bio
I am a Lecturer at the Clarke Honors College at Salisbury University. I also serve as the Honors Advisor for all honors freshmen and sophomores. In addition, I am the Assistant Director for the Nationally Competitive Fellowships Office at Salisbury University. I advise the Honors Student Association and serve as a faculty mentor for student research projects. I am fluent in three languages--English, Bulgarian, and Russian, and my scholarly expertise is in the field of folklore. I am particularly interested in vampire studies and am the recipient of a Teaching/ Research Fulbright Scholar Award for 2024-2025.
