Though my dissertation research is low on DH, digital history remains one of my passions as a historian.
From 2017 to 2019, I was the Toynbee Fellow at the Roy Rosenzweig Center for History and New Media. I managed the website of the Toynbee Prize Foundation, which promotes scholarly engagement with global history and awards the Toynbee Prize once a year in recognition of outstanding work in global history. During this time, I led a complete website redesign at the behest of the Toynbee Prize Foundation, working with them to produce a fresh, new look for the website.
I have also created digital history projects intended for classroom use.
“Murder & Mischianza: A Murder-Mystery in British-Occupied Philadelphia” is an online interactive story exploring the American Revolution through the eyes of common Philadelphians during the British occupation of the city. Limited form available here.
“The Queer 18th Century” was an education digital project intended to transform my master thesis, “Fops, Fribbles and Female Husbands: Gender Diversity in Early America”, into modules that could be incorporated into a high school- or college-level classroom. Unfortunately, it is no longer active.
