About
I am a PhD Candidate in archaeology at Vanderbilt University working to finish my dissertation. I fell in love with archaeology when I was in elementary school and my grandmother took me to see an exhibit of Pre Columbian art at the Art Institute in Chicago. I remember listening to her explain the iconography of the Yaya-Mama statues from Bolivia and thinking, I want to be able to do that someday! This passion lead me to a high school internship at the Field Museum in Chicago and from there to the University of Chicago where I completed my BA in Anthropology, and now I am just a few steps away from completing my PhD at Vanderbilt University. I have 10 years of archaeological field experience working in Peru, and am fluent in Spanish.
