Introduction
I graduated Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey, with majors in Computer Science and English. Later, I entered the PhD program in Comparative Literature, and wrote my dissertation on the topic of Hungarian Roma and African American literatures.
My main area of research is the comparative study of African American and Hungarian Roma societies, cultures, literatures. I have several publications in this area, and have participated in many conferences, among them those organized by The Gypsy Lore Society. I am a member of The European Academic Network on Romani Studies. I am also interested in international contacts and communications among higher education students.
