About Me

I am a historian of science and medicine and a lecturer at the University of North Georgia. My research interests include modern babyhood and the interconnections of education and public health. I teach World Civilizations and U.S. History as well as upper-level courses on the History of Health Care in America, a Cultural History of the “Freak,” and the History of American Childhood. I am also interested in digital pedagogy and the digital humanities.
