About Me

I am a PhD Candidate in American History at Fordham University in New York City. My work examines the nature and evolution of relationships between the Eastern and Western branches of the American woman suffrage movement. My primary research interests are woman suffrage and women’s political culture in the Gilded Age and Progressive Era.
