I am a Ph.D. student working out of the SHEL Lab under Isabelle Holland-Lulewicz. I am an environmental archaeologist with experience in zooarchaeology and stable isotope analysis. Before coming to Penn State, I worked at UGA's Laboratory of Archaeology aiding in curation/collections management and NAGPRA compliance. My Master's research focused on using tooth enamel from a modern herd of elk to establish the species as a local environmental proxy. I plan on continuing this research on cervids to provide a local climatic reconstruction for Southeastern archaeological sites.
