Rebecca Parker

I hold a Bachelor’s degree in English Literature and Social Sciences as well as a Digital Studies certificate from the University of Pittsburgh at Greensburg. I am a current master's student in the Digital Humanities and Textual Studies Program at Loyola University Chicago. The interdisciplinary nature of Digital Humanities is at the core of my undergraduate and graduate work. The combination of history, psychology, and sociology as part of my Social Sciences undergraduate major contributed to my interest in developing digital projects that serve marginalized populations. In the past three years, I have been developing my skills in digital curation and edition making as well as collaborative digital pedagogy, open access digital methods, and community advocacy for digital accessibility.
