I studied history at Princeton and graduated in 2022. I’m about to start a master’s of theology, but the long-term vision is to pursue a Ph.D. in history or religion.

I grew up in Memphis, Tennessee and went to an all-girls day school for fifteen years. I knew I wanted to either do art history or history at Princeton. After taking a class with Professor Jordan about medieval history, I fell in love with it, so I majored in History and got a minor in Medieval Studies.

Then in my junior year, I was doing the thing that all juniors do, which is plan for the summer internship in banking or consulting, and I realized I couldn't do it. So I switched all my classes around and got a Teacher Prep certificate. Now I'm a teacher.
