Mcky Dillon
@mckydillon
Historian and researcher skilled in rigorous writing and analysis.
What I'm looking for
I am a history graduate with a B.A. from The College of New Jersey, trained in comparative global history with focused research on African and American histories. My academic work includes a senior capstone on colonial sub-Saharan Africa (1880–1940) that combined missionary records, colonial legal codes, and oral histories to analyze forced religious conversions as tools of cultural and political domination.
I bring advanced historical writing, source evaluation, and research methodology to professional roles requiring analysis, communication, and contextualization of complex issues. My practical experience includes education support, retail and customer service, and extensive animal care roles where I developed leadership, time management, and strong interpersonal skills.
