About meI grew up in North Carolina and graduated from Wake Forest University with a B.S. in Biology and History, with honors, in 2004. My honors thesis topic was in southern history, which started my reading interests in that area. After college, I attended Dental School at the University of Maryland from 2005-2009, and received my Doctor of Dental Surgery degree. I then enrolled in a six-year residency for specialty training in Oral-Maxillofacial Surgery from 2009-2015. As part of that program, I received my Doctor of Medicine degree from the University of Connecticut in 2012, and completed two years of residency training in General Surgery in 2014. I am currently completing two more years of sub-specialty training in Head and Neck Oncologic and Reconstructive Surgery in Minnesota. When I'm not studying or treating patients, I enjoy hanging with friends, playing golf and tennis, playing piano, and listening to music. I love learning history in all forms - museums, cemeteries, battlefields, and historic homes. My ancestors fought in the American Civil War and being from the South, that eventually became one of the reasons I have such an interest in learning about the people and decisions involved in America's cataclysm.

About my libraryI am a 34 year old history nut, which my library reflects. I have my mother and grandfathers to thank for my love of history. Both grandfathers encouraged that from the age of five, one by bringing me to visit the battlefields of the Civil War and the other by giving up his books to start my collection.

My library originated out of the books my family collected on the Civil War over the 1980s and 1990s. It began growing from my own acquisitions in 2000, when I became interested in collecting general American History and rekindled my interest in reading about the American Civil War. By college I had moved on to Slavery and Southern History books, as well as Military History, thanks to six great courses and two outstanding professors. I became interested in the American Revolution and Founding Fathers in 2008 after reading the works of Joseph Ellis and David McCullough. Starting in 2009, I added some of the fiction classics to round out the corners. In 2010-2011 I began a collection on the American Presidents. I have, over the past few years, started a small collection on Shakespeare and in general literary criticism.

My library is spread over three states, my parents' homes in North Carolina, Connecticut, and my current home in Minnesota. I still have yet to catalog all the books. My best estimate is I have about 5,500 in my collection.

GroupsAbraham Lincoln & Lincolniana, American Civil War, American History, American Revolution & Founding Fathers History, Military History
