Bio: I am a historian of modern North Africa and Europe, focusing on the intersections among environment, colonialism, and technology. My current book project, expanding on my doctoral dissertation, examines French efforts to remake the urban and rural environments of its North African colonies through the implementation of large-scale development projects. As a historian with many years of secondary teaching experience in both public and private school settings, I teach courses and oversee candidates in the department's social studies teacher preparation program. I'm also happy to work with students on projects related to environmental history, colonialism, or the Mediterranean World.

Scholarship: I am a historian of Germany and the German-speaking world, focusing on environmental history, the history of tourism, and ethnic/national identity formation. My current book project explores that transatlantic migration of conservation ideas among German-speakers. Subjects under investigation include German-American agricultural journalists and foresters whose promotion of land ethics contributed to the construction of a common German ethnic identity and offered opportunities to challenge Anglo-American cultural hegemony. In addition, travelers and scientific experts from Germany traveled to North America where they often collaborated with the aforementioned German-Americans. Together, their critiques of "Yankee plunder" also linked land ethics to nation building and imperialism in Germany. Even as these cultural exchanges proliferated, German-speaking conservationists, agronomists and foresters contributed to the intentional and unintentional exchange of plants, animals, fungi, and viruses that often disrupted their political and cultural projects.
