Graduated from the University of Montana in 2004 with a BA in Anthropology (archaeology emphasis), with a minor in Native American Studies. During the 2004 field season I worked as Archaeological Technician for the Ely Ranger District in beautiful, yet sparsely vegetated, Ely, NV. Historic industrial sites have always fascinated me, and with a summer of mining related archaeological fieldwork in Nevada, my fascination has turned to passion.
