Experienced public historian passionate about connecting audiences to the past through public memory, family ties, and grief.

Human connection lies at the heart of my research. Even decisions made centuries ago, shaped by emotion, grief, and resilience, continue to hold meaning for us today.

I am driven by the stories of people who endured profound loss and found ways to persevere. These narratives don’t just illuminate the past; they help us understand the emotional forces behind both major and everyday historical events.

Through tour development, interpretive planning, public programs, archival research, and publications, I seek to to build meaningful connection to our shared history.

I hope these stories speak to you as deeply as they have to me.
