Name/Handle/User Name/Etc: Sofia / sofiaviolet

What You Do (i.e., grad student, adjunct, librarian, etc): Archives! I am an undergrad, and I've been working in my university's Archives and Special Collections department for two years as a student worker, full-time work experience/co-op employee, and volunteer. I plan to accumulate degrees, training, XP, and so forth, as needed, to make a permanent career out of this.

Specialization (discipline, subfield, whatever level of granularity you want): History, with a general tendency to emphasize marginalized groups.

Research/Teaching Interests: Gender, colonialism. I have some preliminary research on free women of color in 19th century New Orleans that I want to expand to fulfill my final degree requirement, and I'm going on a combined research/parent-visiting trip this summer.

Geographic Location: Boston

Other Stuff You Do (i.e., the stuff that keeps you from going crazy): Fangirl Dreamwidth. Hang out with queers and kinksters and burlesque performers. Engage in worldbuilding shenanigans. Write.

Anything Else You Feel Compelled To Add: A lot of my posts about life in the archives are locked, but I grant access to anyone who adds me to their circle. My journal is mostly personal stuff.
