About


I am a first year Ph.D. student working under Dr. den Otter. My cognate essay examined the role of gift-giving in relationship formation between nineteenth century British women, and I intend to expand on this in my Ph.D. dissertation. I am interested in dress history, gender history, material culture history, and British history. I am a TA in HIST 228 and HIST 223 in the 2022-2023 school year.
