Since leaving UA Little Rock in 2008, I have worked in Cultural Resource Management for the government focusing on prehistoric and historic preservation and attended graduate school. I received an MSc in Bioarchaeology from the University of Edinburgh (Classical 5th Century B.C.- Byzantine 15th Century A.D. Health, Diet and Disease from Skeletal Remains), and I am currently a Ph.D. candidate at the same institution.
Aside from running labs, demonstrating, and tutoring at the University, I have been the supervisor of a large project for the last seven years at the UNESCO site of Nessebar, Bulgaria, as well as director of my own project in nearby Sozopol, Bulgaria. I have also had the good fortune to work on unrelated projects in Asia, Africa, and other parts of Europe. The information provided by analysis of human skeletal remains adds to the holistic understanding of past peoples, giving us further insight into human interaction with the environment as well as the manifestation of that relationship in biological and cultural terms.
