Her work focuses on history of energy\, work\, and politics in the modern United States and the world. Currently\, she is working on her first book\, which traces the emergence of energy citizenship—a form of national belonging defined by the rights and obligations of energy production\, distribution\, and consumption—from the coal mining workplace in the modern United States. A second project examines the role of utility companies in defining what counts as “energy work” by organizing both individuals and communities into energy producers and energy consumers. Her research has appeared in Labor\, the Journal of Energy History/ Revue d’Histoire de l’Énergie\, and American Quarterly. Support for my work has come from the Mellon Foundation\, the Jefferson Scholars Foundation at the University of Virginia\, the American Society for Environmental History\, the Western Association of Women Historians\, the Labor and Working-Class History Association\, the Center for the History of Business\, Technology\, and Society\, the University of Chicago\, and several research libraries.
