I received a double bachelor from SIUE in Anthropology and History.  I was the graduate assistant for the SIUE historical archaeology field school in Virginia.  I received my Masters in History from St. Louis University in January, 2006. I directed a field school on the Island of Malta for the University of Leiden in the Netherlands, Summer 2004. I also taught Archaeology for Leiden University for one year, (2004). Since graduation from SIUE I have worked on sites in the American MidWest, Virginia, Malta, Germany, and Thailand. Most of my work has been with historical archaeology of the colonial and/or post-medieval peroid.
