Joshua Peter-Manickam

I am currently in my 4th year at McMaster university studying History and English/Cultural studies with the goal of obtaining an honours bachelor of arts. I have one year remaining at McMaster as I intend to graduate in 2024. I am very passionate about all kinds of history but more specifically in record-keeping, historical archives, research, and making history more accessible to the general public.
