Welcome to Historical Interpretations.
The site is continually evolving with course corrections as I complete additional postgraduate work and progress professionally. I have several outlets for my work as a historian and public historian, research, writing, documentary editing, exhibit development, bibliographic studies, and paper conservation.
2025 is going to be a busy year with five classes left in the academics phase of the Ph.D. program before beginning the comprehensives phase in the spring of 2026. The dissertation phase is scheduled to begin in the fall of 2026 with defense and completion sometime in 2027. Dissertation research will get its own page once the topic has been approved.

Professional Development, Publication, and Research
Academically, having completed a master’s in history and a second in public history, the next step is the doctorate. Over the 2024-2025 winter break, preliminary background and planning for academic research in several areas was compiled. These are projects in early development, and are intended as post-doctoral projects, one being a study of the history of the academy in America 1636 to present. The Research and Projects page provides more information on current and future research.
