I am a historian who lives and works in the San Francisco Bay Area. I received my PhD in History from the University of California, Davis in 2021, and I currently teach History and Global Studies at the University of San Francisco, the College of Marin, and the University of California, Berkeley. Before studying at UC Davis, I obtained my master's degree in History from Loyola University Chicago and my bachelor's degree in History and African and Black Diaspora Studies from DePaul University Chicago.

Most of my scholarship focuses on the Atlantic World with an emphasis on connections between West Africa, Western Europe, and the West Indies in the second half of the eighteenth century. I am particularly interested in the following themes: slavery, abolition, empire, colonization, biography, and the production of history and ethnography.
