LORENZO SHORT l Summer 2025 | Research & Collections Intern

William & Mary

Hi I’m Lorenzo! I am the Research and Collections intern at the Menokin Foundation. 

I am a rising junior history major at W&M, and specialize in early Virginia history and architecture.

At Menokin I focus on understanding and documenting Francis Lighfoot Lee, the Menokin house, and our archaeological artifact collection. Seeking to understand the past (and everything) is my passion, and I am so grateful I get to work on such interesting information here at Menokin. 

In my free time I enjoy running, hiking (and the mountains of Virginia), playing the piano (or harpsichord), and reading a good book.
