I am a tour guide, educator, and public speaker who brings film history to life for audiences of all backgrounds. As the founder of Chicago Movie Tours, I help visitors and locals discover Chicago through its rich cinematic history. Before launching my business, I spent over a decade as a professor of film and media studies. Now, I bring my expertise and passion for teaching beyond the traditional classroom and into real-world and virtual experiences like these. I hold a Ph.D. in Humanities, an M.A. in English, and a B.A. in English, with minors in history and French.
