I am a cultural heritage professional in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Currently, I serve as the Associate Curator of Modern Books and Manuscripts at Houghton Library, Harvard University’s rare book and manuscript library, where I help steward, develop, interpret, and teach from the collections from 1800 through the present day.
At the heart of my work is connecting people to collections—whether that’s helping a researcher navigate a finding aid, working with a journalist to tell an untold story, hosting high school students on a trip to see primary sources, or giving visitors a tour of our latest exhibition.
In my free time, I also review books, write a newsletter on fashion and cultural heritage, and have led several virtual and in-person reading groups.
I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science and Russian Studies from Stetson University, a Master’s degree in Russian and Eurasian Studies from Harvard University, and a Master’s degree in Library and Information Science from Simmons University. For more information, please consult my C.V.
