He is the current secretary of Creator’s Collective, a member of Phi Alpha Theta history honor society, and has served as an undergraduate teaching assistant in multiple courses. He has also served as a Digital Atlas and Design Intern for the World History Center before this role. After graduating from Pitt, he intends to pursue a Ph.D. in history with a focus on twentieth-century United States and queer activism in the post-Stonewall era.
