I am a professional archaeologist and a history buff. I've done archaeological fieldwork in Alaska, Colorado, Nebraska, New Mexico, North Dakota, Belize, Mongolia, and Spain. I have a BA with a double major in anthropology and history and an MA in anthropology with a technical focus on zooarchaeology. I'm an incoming anthropology PhD student at the University of Alaska, Fairbanks. I'm also the host of The Tel, an archaeology podcast on the global ancient history and prehistory of humankind.
I have active research interests in zooarchaeology, arctic prehistory, ancient Polynesia, and late Pleistocene archaeology, and I have a general interest in ancient cultures from the stone age to antiquity. Some of the disciplines that inform my thinking include human behavioral ecology, cultural ecology, comparative mythology, evolutionary psychology, and ethnography, among others. I'm also an avid caver and rock climber. |
