Research Iinterests: My areas of interest include Archaeological Geophysics especially on Middle Mississippian Mound sites in the Yazoo River Basin. I have done geophysics on multiple historic sites in Northwest and South Central Arkansas, as well as prehistoric sites in Arkansas and Pueblo Escondido near Alamogordo, NM. I attended the Ole Miss 2004 Archeology Field School, which sparked my interest in Mississippian culture.
