Biography

Your information needs probably do not fit neatly into one of these rubrics – research, media, or writing. Neither does my background.

I started my career in applied history in Switzerland, where I delved into WWII-era Swiss bank archives on behalf of a Swiss parliamentary commission.

I subsequently worked at the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum, managing the Museum’s onsite media gallery and later serving as the Museum’s Director of Web Content.

I have also written an illustrated history of the fast food industry in Berlin.

In 2004, I was a Public Policy Scholar at the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars, a distinction also held by ambassadors, attorneys general, and university presidents. There, I organized the world’s first international symposium on Cold War historic sites.

In 2005, I opened History Associates Incorporated’s (HAI) first office outside of the U.S. I subsequently managed on behalf of some of the world’s largest financial institutions major legal research and media projects in Germany, the Netherlands, Switzerland, and the UK. Drawing on these professional experiences, I am currently working on a variety of text, research, and media projects.
