Personal profile
Research Interests
I am an Associate Professor in the Anthropology Program at Athabasca University (AU) and a professional archaeologist. I address underrepresented topics in archaeology by studying lesser-known frontier regions and associated everyday lifeways through collaborative methods with local, descendant, and diaspora communities, generating knowledge that is open and accessible.
I co-direct the Stann Creek Regional Archaeology Project (SCRAP) in Belize, the Old Bezanson Archaeology Project (OBAP) in Alberta, and the Finnish Canadian Homestead Project in Ontario and Finland.
My teaching at AU takes place entirely online; as a result, I am particularly interested in technology-enabled learning in archaeological pedagogy, education, and outreach.
