Research Interests

I study spatial history in Europe in the 20th century, specifically looking at community-based mapping practices in central and eastern Europe between the two World Wars. My Ph.D. research examines maps created by Germans living in the Czechoslovak borderlands between the creation of Czechoslovakia in 1918 and the annexation of the Sudetenland in 1938.
