Hi, I'm Charlotte, a Ph.D. Candidate in Yale University's History Department.

In the 2023-24 academic year, I am advancing work on my dissertation with fellowships at the American Philosophical Society in Philadelphia, the John Carter Brown Library in Providence, and with the State of New Jersey Historical Commission and Boston Public Library Leventhal Map & Education Center.

For the past two years, I have also helped to guide research efforts at the landscape architecture firm Reed Hilderbrand related to parks access in New Haven and the elimination of plastic use and water waste in contemporary irrigation systems.
