experience: Co-instructor of Western Michigan University 2002
Archaeological Field School. Assistant Director of the 2003 Kalamazoo
Underground Railroad Freedom Camp sponsored by the Kalamazoo Valley
Museum. Guest lecturer in several elementary and high school classes,
as well as undergraduate and graduate college classes. I have also
lectured for various religious groups, business meetings, as well
as community and private functions including professional conferences.
I am currently the project director and field manager for the Ramptown
Project. As a member of a collaborative research team, I have conducted
documentry research, oral interviews and archaeological investigation
into the existence and location of Ramptown, a 19th century settlement
of formerly enslaved African Americans who resisted enslavement and
settled on Quaker property in Southwest Michigan. In another collaborative
research project, The Genesee County Underground Railroad Heritage
Project, I have reseaarched 19th century Genesee County religious
groups and abolitionist involvement in the Underground Railroad. I
am currently a consultant and archives specialist with the Cass County
Free Soil Archives project, which aims to preserve and catalog primary
and secondary documents and research on the Underground Railroad operations
of Cass County. |
