BA History and English Textual Studies, Syracuse University
I am interested in early American history (my undergrad thesis examined the lives of early 19th century American sailors) as well as medieval European history. As an undergrad I really enjoyed any opportunity to study literature through a historical lens. In this context I am interested in the classics, the English Romantic movement and 20th century cosmic horror. I also appreciate finding historical background in my hobbies, particularly video games and professional wrestling.
