She plans to complete her PhD in spring 2020 with a dissertation entitled “Tropes of Violence and Collective Criminality in Late Medieval Bruges and Ghent.” Her dissertation research explores the perception of criminal activity and group formation in fifteenth-century Flemish cities. More generally, she is interested in interdisciplinary approaches to medieval history that look at folklore and literature in conversation with legal and administrative documents.
