Bio
How does one summarize the "important" points of their life? I am a German Studies honor candidate at Wesleyan University, will be graduating in May 2013. I am a Mellon May Undergraduate Fellow. I plan to work with minorities for the next 2 years in Berlin, Germany and study at the Freie University in Berlin.
I'm passionate about
history, languages, learning about people through their personal narratives, and experiencing new cultures.
An idea worth spreading
Demarginalizing Minorities in History, German History especially. Focus is usually on Nazis, Jews, and other aspects of recent German history, but not on Afro-Germans, Asian-Germans, and other ethnic or cultural minorities.
Areas of expertise
