Research Areas:
Research Interests:

Florida Gulf Coast, Georgia Coast, Archaeological Science, Stable Isotope Geochemistry Environmental Isotope Geochemistry, Zooarchaeology, Complex Hunter-Fisher-Gatherers, Historical Ecology, Paleoenvironmental reconstruction, Small-scale coastal economies, Climate Change, Economic Anthropology, Geoarchaeology, Archaeometry, Geological Applications in Archaeology, Cooperation and Collective Action

My dissertation research uses bayesian analyses of radiocarbon dates, zooarchaeological anaylese of vertebrate and invertebrate remains, and stable isotope geochemistry to examine how shifts in coastal economies were linked to environmental and climatic change among Native American communities of the Florida Gulf Coast AD 1000 - 1500.
