| Research Focus | |
My current project concerns fish remains from an archaeological site in Monterey Bay. I'm interested in seeing if we can sort out human overexploitation from climate change effects in the relative abundances of fish species through time. By combining current fisheries research with archaeological data and knowledge of prehistoric fishing practices, I hope to gain a greater understanding of the interactive relationship between people and the marine environment.
I received my B.A. in Anthropology from the University of Washington in Seattle. My archaeological fieldwork experience includes three summers in Quebec (along the shore of the St. Lawrence Seaway), one in Russia on the Kuril Islands, a fieldschool on Kodiak Island in Alaska, and a Medieval project in southern France. At UC Santa Cruz, I am studying faunal analysis with Diane Gifford-Gonzalez as my advisor. |
