1905 Coca-Cola advertising sign.

Drink Coca-Cola, even though you can’t get a bottle for 5¢ these days.

I am a historian of modern architecture and urbanism between 1850 and 1970. I principally concentrate on France between about 1889 and 1914,

but more broadly I’m interested in Western Europe and North America, though not exclusively. My work most specifically focuses on the

Art Nouveau architecture of the city of Nancy, France, between 1895 and 1914. This is the subject of my Ph.D. dissertation

in the History of Art at the University of Pennsylvania, which I completed in November 2011. Currently, I’m a lecturer in

Art History at the University of Tennessee in Knoxville for the academic year 2011-12.

I’m proud to have been born and raised in Jackson, Mississippi. I graduated from Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia (aka "The Coca-Cola School"), in 2005 before matriculating to Penn.

I'm married to Christina Hansen, who's originally from Baton Rouge, Louisiana, but grew up in Lexington, Kentucky.

She's put together this groovy set of pages about our wedding.
