Diana is a writer and teacher based in New Jersey. She earned her PhD in English and Comparative Literature from Columbia University in 2022 and is currently a postdoctoral lecturer at Princeton University. Her scholarship and teaching explore the human-environment nexus, focusing on how literature and art from the 19th century to now shape the way we perceive, understand, and interact with the nonhuman world. Her work in this vein has been featured or is forthcoming in English Literary History, Victorian Literature and Culture, Future Humanities, and a special issue of Texas Studies in Literature and Language on “Victorian Environments,” among other venues. She is also dedicated to research in pedagogy, with publications on active learning, the politics of teaching citation, and approaches to undisciplining the Victorian classroom.
