I am a historian of 20th century France and the francophone world interested in the social history of ideas, empire and decolonization, and print and reading culture. Having graduated with my PhD from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, I'm now a postdoctoral fellow with the CRIDAQ and the University of Québec at Montreal. My current work focuses on transnational leftist networks and print media as part of revolutionary anticolonialism in the francophone world, particularly focused on Québec, France, and Algeria.
