I am a troper living in North Dakota (hence the nickname) but originally from Georgia. I'm a history Ph D student at the University of North Dakota studying the WWI draft and early 20th century on the Northern Great Plains. I have also spent time studying Native American History, which was the subject of my Master's thesis at Georgia Southern University. You can read it here

As for hobbies and leisure, I spend a lot of time reading history books, both for my academic pursuits and for pleasure. I also have long been a fan of anime, manga, and video games. I am also a huge fan of British comedy I cut my teeth on the Super Nintendo and the original Toonami in the 1990s. I collect a wide variety of things: anime, manga, and video game figures; antiquarian books; antique glass bottles; Native pottery; and much more. I am a big WWI enthusiast. I enjoy the occasional hike.
