I teach courses related to technology, interactivity, and material culture in the Museum Studies Program at George Washington University, and I formerly managed social media outreach at the US Holocaust Memorial Museum. My academic background is in history, art history, and American studies, and my dissertation explored how museums construct community using social media in order to become or appear more "democratic" in various ways. I know basic HTML coding and I know the difference between XML and a database, but I'm still a novice with the technical side of computing and want to learn more. I make a mean pecan pie, from scratch.
