About Me

Photo of me

I am a doctoral student in World History at Northeastern University. My research interests are focused on the textile mills and workers in Lowell, Massachusetts in the early 19th century and how they connect to factories in North Carolina and Mexico through global discourses of race. My work examines flows of labor and technology through the perspective of racial capitalism, and sits at the intersection of cultural, labor, global, economic, and cultural history. I am currently a fellow at the Northeastern University Humanities Center.

I am grateful that my work has been supported by the Archie K. Davis fellowship from the North Caroliniana Society, the Peterson Fellowship from the American Antiquarian Society, the John Hope Franklin Travel Grant from the Duke Rubenstein Library, and the Richard Strassberg Travel Grant from the Kheel Center at Cornell, among others.

I am also a research specialist at the University of California Santa Cruz where I work with Professor Mijin Cha on projects related to how labor unions can shape climate policy at the state level.
