  mentoring_philosophy: 'My teaching and research philosophy revolves around nurturing divergent, critical, and analytical reasoning in students at all levels. By guiding them through progressively challenging readings and fostering discussions, I help students develop logical thinking and informed decision-making skills. I emphasize contextualizing historical events to dispel misinformation and misconceptions, engaging students through group discussions and written reflections. Additionally, I focus on mentoring young researchers to distinguish between primary and secondary sources, navigate archival materials, and explore complex questions through writing. A collaborative environment enables students to contribute their ideas, enriching my research and opening new avenues of exploration. Weekly meetings provide personalized guidance and support, fostering a strong mentor-student connection. My ultimate goal as an educator is to offer students a historical context to understand past decisions and events, encouraging critical evaluation and emotional connection to history. With a background in theatre and creative writing, I prioritize engaging communication and strive to instill a deep appreciation for research in my research assistants. Learning from my students makes me a stronger researcher, and I encourage their input and interests to shape and enrich our collective research. It is my firm belief that instilling respect for research and cultivating a passion for its exploration lays the foundation for my students'' scholarly growth and future success.'

    Join the Exploration of Women Spies in WWII's Special Operations Executive!

    Are you passionate about history and intrigued by the untold stories of extraordinary individuals during World War II? I am seeking enthusiastic and dedicated undergraduate research assistants to collaborate on a captivating project delving into the experiences of spies (usually, women spies) within the Special Operations Executive (SOE).

    As a research assistant, you will have the unique opportunity to contribute to a groundbreaking gender analysis of men and women operatives in the SOE. Your tasks will include reading related literature and analyzing it for potential gender bias, allowing us to uncover hidden narratives and shed light on the gendered dynamics within the organization.

    Another exciting aspect of the project involves building biographies and contributing to a comprehensive database of information about the women of the SOE. By gathering and documenting their remarkable stories, you will help ensure that their contributions to history are preserved and celebrated.

    Additionally, you will be actively involved in transcribing audio interviews with SOE employees, allowing you to hear firsthand accounts of their experiences and further enriching our understanding of their roles during this pivotal period in history.

    This research offers a unique opportunity to engage with a fascinating topic and make a meaningful impact on historical scholarship. It is an excellent chance for history enthusiasts to develop critical research skills, gain exposure to primary sources, and contribute to an important field of study.

    Join my team and become part of a passionate group of researchers committed to bringing these incredible stories to light. If you have a love for history, a keen eye for detail, and a desire to uncover hidden histories, I invite you to be a part of this exciting journey into the world of WWII espionage.
