I served as a research fellow for the TSHA's Handbook of Texas Women. My responsibilities included researching and writing several biographical entries on Black women involved in the Black Freedom Stuggle. I am also experienced in writing biographical entries with the Oxford University Press' African American National Biography.

I am the managing editor for Black Perspectives, an award-winning blog of the African American Intellectual History Society (AAIHS). As engaged scholars, we are deeply committed to producing and disseminating cutting-edge research that is accessible to the public and is oriented towards advancing the lives of people of African descent and humanity. We serve as a medium to advance these critical goals.

I am a well-trained researcher with excellent skills in analyzing large amounts of knowledge and making the information digestible for public audiences. I work well under pressure and can produce high-quality work in short periods of time. I have strong interpersonal skills and work with a wide variety of people. Some of my previous employers include Southern Poverty Law Center and Macmillan Holdings.
