Bio
I have experience in terrestrial and maritime archaeology, maritime history and material culture analysis. My research interests include maritime historical and archaeological topics from the 17th to 19th centuries, with a focus on 18th century North Carolina. A major theme of this research is related to the archaeology of landing sites, ports, and harbor infrastructure. I am also interested in geo-spatial analysis, digital and 3D documentation methods, maritime landscape studies, and public archaeology.

I am the current Staff Archaeologist for the Program in Maritime Studies at East Carolina University (ECU). In addition to academic research support, I also assist with scientific diving and water safety logistics for ECU. Since 2011, I have worked on projects in South Africa, the Caribbean, New York’s Hudson Valley, North Carolina, the Great Lakes, Florida, and Pacific Islands. Before joining the staff at ECU, I was employed as a maritime archaeologist for the Queen Anne’s Revenge Shipwreck Project at the QAR Conservation Laboratory and NC Underwater Archaeology Branch.
