I'm a veteran project manager and the creator of LookBackMaps, an innovative public history project that is one of many new mashups in the field of historical and cultural heritage websites. I specialize in innovative solutions and community engagement across a diverse range of projects. An interest in historical photos inspired me to create LookBackMaps in 2008 and quickly evolved into identifying collaborative efforts for institutions to harness public interest in their holdings, share metadata, and leverage crowdsourcing. Among other things, I currently serve as the project manager for Civil War Data 150, a project that seeks to demonstrate the potential of Linked Data in the humanities.
