I wanted to let you all know that I will make a few changes in 2023.

You may have noticed that I have not been writing as many posts this year as I did in previous years. I became a staff member for the Three Village Historical Society where I have also been a part of their Education Committee for the past five years. Because of this, I have been busy in my new role and could not write as much as I previously did.

I plan to continue to produce content for all of you but it will not be as frequent as I did in the past. I am changing the schedule so I would post once or twice per month.

Also, I plan to create a separate funding option to help this blog and website grow. For instance, if enough funding is raised it would be possible to hire more writers to contribute to the blog. There will be more posts to come so stay tuned.

Thank you all for your patience and for continuing to visit my website.

Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!

I am a passionate and dedicated individual who is determined to provide local and national history for future generations to appreciate their roots and teach the next generation. My love for museums began from a very young age. When I was a child, my family encouraged myself and my sisters to visit various historic sites and museums including Plimoth Plantation and Salem Witch Museum, and continued as I grew up when I saw places such as the Birthplace of Abigail Adams.
My lifelong passion for history led me to earn my Bachelors degree in History from Western New England University and my Masters degree in Public History from Central Connecticut State University. While I was in the Central Connecticut State University Public History graduate program, I worked on the Connecticut Historical Society’s “Cooking by the Book” exhibit that my group came up with the original proposal for. I also helped set up art exhibits at CCSU’s art galleries, and wrote a lesson plan on women contributions to society in the eighteenth century as a final project in the program for the Stanley-Whitman House museum.
Along the way, I gained various experiences within school activities and museums. My experiences include working with students in school programs at the Stanley-Whitman House in Farmington, Connecticut, Connecticut’s Old State House, and Connecticut Landmarks Hartford properties. I also volunteered at the Franklin Historical Museum in Franklin, Massachusetts where I provided tours for visitors, helped organize public programs connected with town events, and kept an inventory of the museum’s collections. I became a full time Museum Educator with the Long Island Museum where I teach programs, and take on administrative roles such as schedule programs.
Today, I am an independent museum professional working on various projects for museums and historical societies. For instance, I joined the Three Village Historical Society working on various projects, both in person and virtually, in the education department. I continue to look for opportunities in which I educate school groups and the public on the significance of the arts, history, and sciences in our society through the museum education field.
