My name is Bryttany Grimes and I am ecstatic to begin my PhD at MSU. My primary field of research Is African History with an emphasis on Nigeria. My previous works have focused on gender relations, religion, colonialism, and the culture of the Igbo and Hausa peoples comparatively. Outside of my academic pursuits, I enjoy spending time consuming horror media, playing TTRPGS, going to the theater, and cooking. I will be new to the Lansing area and love to discover local hangout spots if anyone has any suggestions.
