At Columbia, he produced a series of pedagogical events as a Lead Teaching Fellow and in previous years taught Art Humanities. Charles received his M.A. in the History of Art from Williams College, during which time he co-curatedWorks as Progress/Works in Progress: Drawing in Eighteenth- and Nineteenth-Century Franceat Williams College Museum of Art.
