About
I'm a first year PhD Student at Boston College in the History Department. I am studying the Atlantic World in the early modern period, circa 1600-1815. By this, I mean the imperial projects, networks, commercial routes, migration patterns and political institutions that unite the European, African and American peoples, colonies and states into a wider transatlantic network of influence and identity.
My current research project examines the experience of Scottish traders and migrants in the late seventeenth and early eighteenth century, with reference to both the political dimension of their colonial projects and their conception of and existence within a wider Protestant Atlantic Empire.
