About Me 

I’m from New Jersey, and received my undergraduate degree at Rutgers University-Camden where I got my B.A. in history. During my time at Rutgers, I was inducted into Phi Alpha Theta -National History Honor Society. I also began my career in public history working as an intern at museums like the National Constitution Center, the Weitzman National Jewish Museum of American History, as well as Macculloch Hall Historic Home. I have experience working in museum education, museum programs, and curatorial. I worked for the Encyclopedia of Greater Philadelphia as a research and digital publishing assistant with M.A.R.C.H (Mid-Atlantic Regional Center for the Humanities.) After Rutgers, I attended the Millersville University in Pennsylvania for my M.A. in American history. While at Millersville, I was a graduate assistant for the dean in the College of Education and Human Services. I was also inducted into ODK -National Leadership Honor Society, and served on Phi Alpha Theta board. My master’s thesis was based on the relationship between the men of Virginia and Massachusetts from the eve of the American Revolution through the state ratification debates. My research has primarily focused on the life and achievements of George Mason. My master’s thesis was titled, The Battle After the War : How the Men of Virginia and Massachusetts Went From Allies to Political Adversaries While Forging a New Republic. I am currently a PhD student at the University of Missouri-Columbia and focus on the Early American Republic and the Atlantic World in 18th century Virginia and Massachusetts. I have also worked with the National Museum of Bermuda where I was contracted as an independent historical consultant. With my experience and research, I aspire to work as an independent historical consultant after completion of my doctorate degree.
