How did you get
into your current line of work: While writing my senior thesis, I realized
that I loved to research in dusty archives and that being a historian would
take me to those dark, dim, and intriguing places. It helped that in Claremont
I had a cadre of mentors who clearly reveled in their work in and out of class,
and I wanted to share in that joy. I’ve been so lucky to have found it.
