I am a university instructor, a writing tutor, and a historian.

Teaching: As a university history instructor, I help students hone their skills in asking good questions, thinking deeply and carefully about different types of source material, and communicating their ideas effectively.

I am currently an adjunct instructor in the Department of History at the University of North Alabama, where I teach graduate and undergraduate courses on European history.
In 2026, I received the Outstanding Adjunct Faculty Award from UNA's College of Arts, Sciences, and Engineering.

Previously, I taught undergraduate history courses at Vanderbilt University, and I also served as Special Assistant to the Senior Associate Dean for Graduate Education and Research.

Tutoring: As an experienced writing tutor, I help 5th-12th grade students hone their skills as writers and learn to use a wide range of strategies to express their ideas effectively. I hold sessions online and in-person in my local area.

Research and publications: I examine religion and print culture in Britain and across the Atlantic in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries.
