  15. I've moved to hcommons.social, so I'm reposting my #introduction:

    I'm a historian of #earlymodernengland, working on #gender #HistoryofFamily, #histmed. I've published on the history of #infertility and I'm now working on a book on #sisters

    I'm in #AltAcademia - the program manager for the #DanDavidPrize, currently the biggest prize in the world for #histodons and scholars of the past.

    I'm also a #PhDMom of an only child, a #geek, #Dnd player and a knitter and cross-stitcher.
