About the Blog

In A Catalog of Curiosity, I try 100 new things and report back to the readers, often with long-form reflections. The things run the gamut from reading books and visiting museums I’ve been meaning to get to, to having grand new adventures. They are all connected to what I consider my work, which includes history, writing, teaching, navigating the role of museums in their communities, and more. "My work" is at my job doing exhibits and education at a medical museum, and it’s outside of my job. I hope you’ll join me for my whole journey, but if you want to jump straight to posts that relate to you, choose a tag below.
