About
I am a 2009 graduate of Acadia University in Nova Scotia, Canada with a BA with Honours (History). My fourth year honours thesis was an archival thesis that required me to orgainize and examine a collection from my universities archives. From that collection I produced a paper that focused on the settlement of American Loyalists in Nova Scotia after the American War for Independence.
In 2010, I was part of the museum studies internship program at Mystic Seaport: The Museum of America and the Sea. As of August 2012, I will be attending graduate school at the University of New Hampshire.
My particular areas of interest are in early/colonial America, the American War for Independnce, New England in the 18th Century, American Loyalists, the colonial American military system, and the British army of the latter half of the 18th century.
