ABOUT
Jamie holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Archaeology/Anthropology and a Master’s Degree in Museum Studies/Public History from Appalachian State University. She holds a PhD in History from The Ohio State University.
She currently works as a historian with the U.S. government and as a part-time history instructor for Southern New Hampshire University’s online program. She previously taught history at Stevenson University.
Originally from North Carolina, Jamie now calls the D.C. metro area home with her husband and two pups, Thomas Jefferson and John Tyler.
