About

I am a history PhD candidate at George Mason University. I was a Digital History Fellow and Graduate Research Assistant at the Roy Rosenzweig Center for History and New Media from 2016-2020, where I served as Managing Editor of Digital Humanities Now.

I also served as the graduate student representative on the Society for Historians of the Gilded Age and Progressive Era Council from 2018-2021 and currently serve as the Co-Editor-in-Chief of the SHGAPE blog.

I focus on late-nineteenth-century and early-twentieth-century U.S. history, Native American history, digital history, and public history. My dissertation project examines how political debates over land, statehood, and Native sovereignty in the American West played out at the 1904 Louisiana Purchase Exposition. When I’m not researching world’s fairs, I enjoy embroidery, narrative nonfiction, and bad television.
