I am currently the editorial assistant for the Online Nevada Encyclopedia (ONE). I graduated in 2010 from the University of Nevada, Reno with a bachelor’s degree in history. My scholarly focus is on Reno and Nevada history, especially in regards to area ethnic groups. While a student, I curated the public exhibition "An American Dream in Little Italy: Work, Play, and Geography in the Powning Addition," held at the McKinley Arts and Culture Center in Reno during the summer of 2010. I have also completed work for the National Park Service's Pacific Coast Immigrant Museum on Napa Valley's Italian American community. My current duties as editorial assistant for the ONE include copyediting, fact checking, article writing, and multimedia creation.
