My undergraduate degrees are in History and Art History from Williams College (2000). After a gap year working as an Intern Educator at the Brooklyn Museum of Art, I moved to Baltimore to continue my studies. I received my Ph.D. in the History of Art from Johns Hopkins University in 2007. From 2008 to 2010, I was a Mellon Postdoctoral Fellow and Lecturer in the Department of Art and Archaeology at Columbia University in New York and from 2010 to 2011, Visiting Assistant Professor in Art History at Oberlin College. While studying and teaching at these universities, I have continued to be active in museums, working at the Walters Art Museum as a Hall Fellow (2003), and lecturing regularly at the Cloisters, the medieval branch of the Metropolitan Museum of Art (2006-2010). In 2011, I returned to Baltimore to teach for and administer the Program in Museums and Society, a position that is giving me an opportunity to pursue a long-standing interest in the connections between the two worlds in which I have worked: the university and the museum.
