My interest in academic research technology developed while completing my
doctorate in the Department of Romance Languages and Literatures at Harvard.
In addition to working on course Web sites for the department, I became Project
Manager of the Decameron Web at Brown
University, a NEH-sponsored humanities computing project. At Brown, I
collaborated with the Scholarly Technology Group on adding a series of new
pedagogical and metadata tools to an electronic version of Boccaccio’s great
literary work.
