I teach courses in modern American history at the University of Connecticut- Hartford. I am affiliated faculty in American Studies, Urban and Community Studies; and the Africana Studies Institute. I teach online courses during summer and winter that serve all UConn campuses and are taken for credit by students at universities across the country.
I advise Honors theses in modern American political history and serve on PhD committees for students pursuing American political history, urban history, and criminal justice topics.
I am accepting MA and PhD students. Do reach out if you are thinking about applying to work with me. I only work as primary advisor to students pursuing topics in carceral history.
I am happy to serve as a secondary advisor/ committee member to students working in urban, African American, cultural, public, and environmental history, especially with my colleagues in modern American history, Jeffrey O.G. Ogbar, Micki McElya, Andy Horowitz, Mars Plater, and Hana Maruyama.
