I teach history at Loyola University, New Orleans where I write about the relationship between sports, education, community, nation, and transnationalism in Kenya. I hold a Ph.D. in African History from Michigan State University and am currently working on a book exploring the social, educational, and sports history of St. Patrick's High School, one of Kenya's most prominent sporting and educational institutions.
