My research is on women and gender in prescriptive discourses and ethical thought in both pre-modern and modern Islam. My scholarship is a feminist engagement with the Islamic intellectual tradition that seeks to advance understandings of the ways that gender is constructed in Islamic philosophy and operates in historical and contemporary transnational Muslim communities. At Dartmouth I teach courses on Islam, gender in Islamic texts, transnational Muslim feminist movements, and the core course in WGSS, Sex, Gender & Society.
