My research, teaching and public humanities work focuses on 19th- and 20th-century US cultural history with complementary emphases in material and visual culture studies. Prior to grad school I worked as a writer and editor in the arts, museum, marketing, and medical fields. At UCONN's Digital Media Center I continue to serve as editor for www.ConnecticutHistory.org, a WordPress-based state encyclopedia project that was initiated in collaboration with Connecticut Humanities during my time with the Roy Rosenzweig Center for History & New Media.
