Selected Projects 20<strong>16</strong>-<strong>18</strong><br />
Upon graduation I received a Mellon Summer<br />
Internship grant from the RISD Museum. There I<br />
worked with Emily Peters at the Department of<br />
<strong>Print</strong>s, Drawings, and Photographs. My contributions<br />
involved cataloguing Flemish <strong>print</strong>s in the extensive<br />
RISD archives as well as publishing an essay in RISD<br />
Museum’s online journal, Manual.<br />
I am <strong>no</strong>w continuing my research on the architecture<br />
of the city of New Bedford’s Abolitionist neighborhood.<br />
The project, called The Aesthetics and<br />
Architectonics of an Abolitionist Neighborhood is<br />
led by Professor Karimi and is funded by a Creative<br />
Eco<strong>no</strong>my Grant. So far, in my capacity as a research<br />
assistant to the project, I have conducted research<br />
at the archives of the Whaling Museum, the New<br />
Bedford Registry of Deeds, and the New Bedford<br />
Public Library. These research projects have prepared<br />
me well for graduate school. I am currently<br />
applying to several graduate programs in Art History<br />
and I hope to be a professor of Art History, training<br />
the future generation of Americans.<br />
