CURRENT RESEARCH PROJECT I am working on the collection, translation, and publication of Carolinian immigrant manuscripts, memoirs, and autobiographies as part of an illustrated anthology project involving Southern history collections, including the NC State Archives, the Moravian Archives, the North Carolina Collection at UNC, the Special Collections Library at Duke University, the Library of Congress, and the National Archives. The goal of the “Carolinian Immigrant Memory Project” is to trace, document and illuminate the historical and cultural experiences of new Carolinians from the colonial period to contemporary times.

My classroom work aims toward
making the study of German a challenging, exciting, and rewarding endeavor by
stressing the interdisciplinary applications of language, literature, and
culture studies. In general, my teaching focuses on all aspects of modern German
civilization, including introductory and intermediate language courses, advanced
conversation and composition courses, and special topic courses on German
literature and cultural history from 1800 to the present. My pedagogy aims at
solid standards of achievement and articulation with other colleges and
universities in order to ensure that students can successfully complete their
undergraduate degrees, and are well qualified to enter graduate programs or
professional careers with meaningful credentials.
