Hi, all! — I’m Jessica Horvath Williams, a doctoral student in Lit in English at UCLA. I’m a 19th century Americanist, working on literary form and disability, especially mental disability (filing in June 2020). I’m back and forth between California and Minnesota, where my partner lives, and I work the Critical Disability Studies Collective at UMN. I also do disability and race/gender/sexuality education and activism, especially recently with medical professionals, in the Twin Cities. My summer goals center around finishing up the first chapter of my dissertation and establishing an online presence. Pleasure to meet you all!
