I am an Archaeologist and GIS Specialist studying complex societies and networks. I approach this with a heavy emphasis on GIS and Environmental Archaeology. Scroll down to learn more about me and my work.
I am terrible at writing about myself, but research shows humanizing myself on my portfolio
makes me more marketable.
Outside of work, lets talk about:
My research focuses on interregional trade networks in the Central and Northern Andes. I have previously worked on archaeological projects in Trujillo, Cañete, Ancash, Castellammare di Stabia (Italy), and the Midwestern United States. My interests are focused on the integration of GIS, network theory, and environmental archaeology. I have presented research related to Zooarchaeology, Archaeobotany and GIS.
