What I'm looking for

I seek roles combining historical research or policy work with administrative/project support in collaborative, mission-driven teams that value growth and community impact.

I am a BA History and Strategic Studies student researching Colonial West Africa with concentrations in the history of medicine, science, Christian evangelization, the slave trade, economic, political, and military history. I combine rigorous academic research with practical experience in outreach, policy hackathons, and project coordination to produce clear, impactful work.

I have strong administrative and client-relations skills demonstrated across roles in sales, office support, and volunteer campaigns, and I am proficient with Google Workspace, Microsoft Office, multiple CRMs, and project-management tools. I seek opportunities where I can contribute research expertise, community engagement experience, and reliable remote-support capabilities to advance historical scholarship or support mission-driven teams.
