I am an MA student with a research focus in biomolecular archaeology and zooarchaeology. I completed my BA (Hons.) in Anthropology with a minor in Anthropological Archaeology at UBC in 2023. Using Zooarchaeology by Mass Spectrometry (ZooMS), my honours thesis involved expanding the reference database for whales and identifying whale species composition in the archaeological record within Tseshaht First nation territories. My MA research takes a multi-method archaeological approach to investigate landscape management, biodiversity, and interregional exchange of resources among early pre-ceramic hunter-gatherer communities in the Eastern Andes of northern Peru.
