About Me

I am a historian with a Ph.D. in military history with a focus on the Fist World War. I have extensive experience working in public history and I have curated major physical and digital exhibitions for a number of clients that include: Brooklyn Historical Society, the Intrepid Sea, Air, and Space Museum, the Rockefeller Archive Center/Rockefeller Foundation, the Canadian War Museum and Library and Archives Canada. I am the C.P. Stacy award-winning author of Death or Deliverance: Canadian Courts-Martial in the Great War.
