In terms of librarianship, I’m interested in digital scholarship, especially digital humanities (DH), altmetrics, and open access. As a historian, my background is in early modern European and Atlantic history, but I lean toward intersections of crime, medicine, and religion. My current research projects include 1) a longitudinal analysis of DHÌýconferences withÌýÌýsince 2013, 2) a public digital humanitiesÌýwebsite dedicated to oral histories of theÌýÌýsince 2015, and 3) the role of Death Positivity in DH project sunsetting (2020). My teaching has heavily influences my research since 2018, and I’m increasingly exploring and interrogating critical and empathetic pedagogies that center historical recovery and archival justice as DH fluencies.Ìý
