I received my BA in physics and astronomy with a minor in archaeology from Carleton College in 2019. Seeking to combine my two disciplines, I received my MSc in archaeological science from UCL in 2020 where my dissertation focused on glass production technology, raw materials, and glass recycling in medieval Italy.
After working in an enviromental lab for two years, I decided to follow my passion for maritime archaeology and began my PhD research at Southamtpon in 2023. I am interested in contextualizing past research in the areas of Roman Illyricum and the Apulia region of Italy, while understanding social connections and perceptions of the sea.
