Work in Progress
- My research focuses on the early national United States, particularly the
confluence of economic interests, diplomacy, domestic politics, and
military power. I’m working on a new book project, tentatively titled
“The Miranda Affair: A Venezuelan Patriot and the United States” which
examines the role of investors, laborers, and federal officials in an
attempted rebellion in the Spanish Empire in the early nineteenth century. - I am a book reviews editor for the Journal of the Early Republic and the
coordinator for The Ohio Seminar in Early American History and Culture. - I enjoy advising and working with graduate and undergraduate students
on projects related to early American history and the history of capitalism.
