I am a graduate student from Downers Grove, IL. I focus my research on public and environmental history regarding public lands and wildfires under the guidance of Dr. Michael Childers and Dr. Jared Orsi. I graduated from CSU in 2020 with a B.A. in Sociology with minors in Environmental Studies and History. I have interned at the Public and Environmental History Center under the supervision of Dr. Jared Orsi where I worked on research projects for Death Valley National Park and the CSU Mountain Campus. I have also worked as a research assistant for Dr. Sarah Payne where I helped on a project regarding the history of the Poudre River Trail amongst other things.
