I am an art historian specializing in the medieval and Early Modern world. Currently the Andrew W. Mellon Curator of Academic Programming and Curator of European Art at the Hood Museum of Art, Dartmouth College, I research the art and architecture of the Low Countries, France, and Germany in cross-cultural context. In my publications and exhibitions, I analyze the mobility of objects and artists, the reception of the past, the relationship of the foreign and the local, the environment of the workshop, and responses to iconoclasm.

In addition to my academic scholarship and university teaching, I am committed to engaging broad audiences with objects. My exhibitions, ranging across time periods and geographies, aim to bring objects to life.
