Biography
I have a deep passion for the study of ancient Judaism with broad research interests in the Hebrew Bible, Second Temple Judaism, Early Christianity, and Rabbinic Literature. I am currently finishing my doctoral dissertation at Harvard University on the figure of Abraham in early Jewish and Christian biblical interpretation. In all of my work I strive to illuminate the complex dialectic between biblical interpretation and theological development.
