Merry Meet!

I'm Crystalina Mae, the host of The Witchy Historian. I am a gender historian and graduate student of early modern French Empire and post-Reformation Christianity. My past research includes the intersectionality of race and gender, and post-Civil War human rights movements in the U.S.

I am also an avid reader, a musician and music fan, and a bonafide nerd at heart! I have four children, two dogs, and one cat. There is also an impressive library in my house, that is Dewey Decimaled to the best of my ability. I like exploring new restaurants and cool witchy shops, as well as going to conventions and festivals. I play a Halfling College of Swords Bard in a bi-weekly D&D campaign, and my life goal is to own a home with a hobbit hole and grill garden. There may also be a TARDIS in my future, but SPOILERS ;)

I hope you enjoy the podcast! Feel free to send me an email at thewitchyhistorian@gmail.com
