About Me

I am a recent graduate of the University of Rochester. I am currently looking for an internship opportunity in antiquities and ancient cultures in the museum field.

Work History

  • Barnes and Noble
  • Bookseller
  • May 2007 to August 2009
  • I had a seasonal (summer) position working at Barnes and Noble in Brooklyn, NY between semesters at college. I assisted customers and stocked and maintained inventory in the store.

Education

  • University of Rochester
  • B.A. Degree, Archaeology, Technology, and Historical Structures
  • 2006 - 2010
  • I was the first student from the University of Rochester to graduate in this interdisciplinary field. I graduated with distinction. My studies focused mainly on the ideas and practices of the ancient Greeks and Romans. My final research project compared the funerary architecture and domestic architecture of the ancient Romans with that of the Etruscans.

  • Macquarie University
  • N.A., Study Abroad, Archaeology
  • 2009 - 2009

    Egyptian Archaeology (An Introduction)
    Rome: From Republic to Empire
    Archaeology and Society
    Prehistory to Pompeii: Archaeology in Ancient Italy

  • Bard High School Early College
  • High School Diploma, A.A. Degree
