When not teaching 4th grade, I visit classrooms all over New York City as a costumed interpreter and educator, portraying Emily Roebling and talking about bridge science in support of their Brooklyn Bridge social studies units. See the "Meet Emily Roebling" tab above for more information or to book a visit with Emily!

My public history work is focused on late 19th and early 20th century infrastructure in New York City. As a licensed NYC tour guide, my historical walking tours focus on the history of the NYC subway, the building of the Brooklyn Bridge, and development of the surrounding downtown area. My work includes lectures for adult audiences on a broad range of historical topics, including the popular monthly storytelling show NYC Secrets & Lies. You can also find me at the 19th century Merchant House Museum in Manhattan, leading tours about the house and her ghostly inhabitants.
