Currently ABD on a PhD from the University of Minnesota in Dress, History, and Culture. My dissertation focuses on developing a method to use garment reproduction as research with two dresses from the early 20th century as a case study.
Previously, I've worked primarily in academic museums, focusing on historic clothing collections. My largest project to date has been a survey of the garment collectison and development of a cataloging guide at Michigan State University.
I also posess a MSI from the University of Michigan with a specialization in archive and records management. This education and several years of experience processng archival collections has informed my work in museum collections.
