About Me
I teach in the history and Catholic studies programs. I believe culture is the driving force of history, and that cult, in the sense of "worship," is the wellspring of culture. The vocation of the historian is enriching the world of the present through knowledge and preservation of the past.
Why I’m At MaryThis university truly seeks to serve students in this region and beyond. It has a strong identity and encourages faculty toward excellence in both teaching and research.
Expertise
My main field is modern intellectual and cultural history. I teach courses on the Great War, the History of Science and Medicine, and Catholicism and the Modern World.
