Biography

I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Anthropology at Colorado State University (CSU). As an archaeological anthropologist I am interested in the ways societies shaped, and were shaped by, the landscapes they inhabited. My research is primarily focused on eastern North America, where I use methods from geophysics, geoarchaeology, and chronological modeling to examine the integration of pre-Contact Native American landscape modification and interaction within the social, economic, and political institutions of small-scale societies. At CSU, I serve as founder and director of the CRAG (Center for Research in Archaeogeophysics and Geoarchaeology).
