About
I bring a unique interdisciplinary perspective that blends forensic anthropology, cultural research, education, and storytelling into engaging, accessible conversations for modern audiences. My background spans scientific research, public education, conference presentations, and multimedia communication, allowing me to translate complex topics into meaningful and memorable experiences. Through my work as the creator and host of Field Notes from the Dead, I explore the intersections of anthropology, human behavior, trauma, media, and culture in ways that connect academic research with real-world conversations. My presentations combine evidence-based research with approachable storytelling, creating programs that are informative, thought-provoking, and audience-centered. Whether speaking to students, educators, community groups, writers, or interdisciplinary audiences, I aim to make people think differently about humanity, identity, fear, storytelling, and the ways we understand one another through science and culture.
