Bio/Description

I am a Ph.D. Candidate in the Department of History and a University Administrative Fellow with SHARE (Sexual Harassment/Assault Advising, Resources, and Education). My research primarily focuses on women’s piety in medieval Europe, especially the religious practices of non-cloistered women in thirteenth- and fourteenth-century Italy.

I received a BA in History and BA in Philosophy from Plymouth State University in 2017, and completed a MA in History at the University of Vermont in 2019. I am currently a sixth-year graduate student in the Department of History at Princeton and working on my dissertation, which explores ideas about women, death, and salvation in medieval Italy.

I am very excited to be working with the SHARE office this semester to expand graduate student outreach and support for issues relating to sexual harassment, sexual assault, dating/domestic violence, and stalking.
