    Fieldwork

    I study Egyptian royal living-rock stelae using digital technologies, translations of their texts, and theories about how people and the natural world interact with each other. My fieldwork sites are located in Sudan, Lebanon, and Egypt.

    Funding

    My research is generously supported by a Mellon Mediterranean Regional Research Fellowship from the Council of American Overseas Research Centers, a U.S. Department of State ECA Fellowship from the American Research Center in Egypt, and a SPARC Fieldwork Award from the Center for Advanced Spacial Technologies at the University of Arkansas.

    Museum Education

    In addition to my archaeological work, I am the Inga Maren Otto Curatorial Fellow in Academic and Public Programs at the Harvard Art Museums, and an On-Call Educator at the Rhode Island School of Design Museum. In both of my roles I support art education for students and members of the public by designing and delivering tailored programming with art from all of the Museums’ departments (ancient and modern).
