For over a decade, I have worked as an educator and program administrator in both academic and non-profit settings. While trained as an academic historian, my approach to education focuses on building connections between scholarly and local communities through programs that integrate academic inquiry, student professional and civic development, and community knowledge and needs. I have also written extensively on the intersections between academic and political life, with a book on the history of civic engagement in higher education as well as a range of academic and public articles on modern American politics, higher education, and social protest.
