About

I am a historian, working on the intellectual, cultural, and religious history of early modern Europe (c. 1500 - 1800). Geographically, my research and teaching focus on England, Italy, and the Spanish Empire. I am an Assistant Professor in History at the University of Texas at Austin.

 

I carried out my undergraduate and doctoral work in history at Princeton University; in between, I earned an MPhil in early modern history from the University of Cambridge as a Gates Cambridge Scholar. My projects and writing have received various awards, including: a Fulbright research award to Italy, the Eleanor M. Garvey Fellowship in Printing and Graphic Arts at Houghton Library (Harvard), an Andrew Mellon Foundation fellowship at the Huntington Library, the Mellon-CES Dissertation Completion Fellowship, and numerous awards and fellowships from Princeton University.
