I received my PhD in American Religious History from Florida State University in 2013. My research focuses on the relationship between religion and politics in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, with an emphasis on U.S. foreign relations. I am currently an Adjunct Instructor of Religion at Florida State University and Florida A&M University. In addition to teaching, I am an Assistant to the Editors for _Church History: Studies in Christianity and Culture_, the journal of the American Society of Church History.
