Bio

Charlotte graduated from Durham University with a BA in History with honors in 2020. She focused on the medieval and early modern periods and wrote her final thesis on maritime environmental history. Her research interests include maritime culture, sailors’ beliefs, and how they interacted with the climate changes around them. She has experience digging in Bermuda and Italy and is excited to add SCUBA fieldwork to her skills. She’s particularly interested in work in areas that are warmer than her snowy hometown in upstate New York. She hopes to use her historical training to bring new ideas to marine environmental policy and work towards more sustainable ocean practices.
