Biography

My area of specialization is archaeology. Within this broad subfield, my research and expertise are in environmental archaeology, zooarchaeology, and human-animal relationships. Working primarily with ancestral Unangax虃 sites, I am most interested in questions having to do the interplay of culture and climate change and with how humans engaged with both their physical and metaphysical environments . My recent projects have focused on identifying avian bone pathology in archaeological assemblages from the eastern Aleutian Islands. Other projects include the use of scanning electron microscopy to identify avian eggshell from a sub-elite neighborhood in Pompeii, Italy and using experimental archaeological studies to understand human taphonomic impacts on archaeological assemblages. My dissertation research examined the impact of environmental and cultural changes on the relationship between the ancestral inhabitants of 麻豆无码版鈥檚 Aleutian Islands, the Unangax虃, and birds. This study has been featured in a chapter published in Fisher-Hunter-Gatherer Complexity in North America with the University Press of Florida (2023). I am also currently working on a single authored manual for archaeological bird bone and egg identification.
