Research Interests: 

I’m an archaeologist with an interest in past environments and human-environmental interactions in northern (boreal) North America. Since 2005, I have also been developing new ways of reconstructing paleodietary changes in this region and elsewhere through the analysis of food residue preserved on archaeological pottery and other artifacts.
