About
My primary dissertation focus at Fordham University is the influence of science in colonial Puerto Rico as a result of American Empire; however, my subordinate interests in science history relate to Asia, the American South, and broader Latin America. My thesis work at Claremont Graduate University focused on Darwinism in China, an outgrowth of my leadership in Shanghai as a board member for the Irvine Sister City Foundation. A broadly published science history writer and a biologist (M.S. from the University of South Florida, B.S. from Auburn University), I have worked in government regulatory affairs for Monsanto and other agrochemical firms. Leveraging that extensive technical writing experience related to environmental compliance, I have also provided grant-writing support for NGOs and Arts organizations.
