AboutA native of Sarajevo, Bosnia-Herzegovina, I came to the U.S. in 1994 to continue my undergraduate studies in English and Spanish, which were cut short by the wars in the former Yugoslavia in the early nineties. In the last decade, while dealing with the reality of exile, I completed three degrees and got my teaching job at Westminster College.
I am passionate about literary and cultural studies and feel lucky to have the opportunity to share my knowledge and enthusiasm with Westminster students. I especially appreciate the field of comparative literature because of its global, cross-cultural approaches to literature and, as comp lit scholar Edward Said points out, its understanding of difference without exoticization or dehumanization.
For more details on my research interests and professional experience, please see my web page.
