About

Museums, archaeology and anthropology (oh, my!). My thoughts are exactly that. Mine. I'm interested in looking at issues that effect contemporary museums. I love museums because they can explore different processes of connection in so many ways. I am an unapologetic Ancient Egyptian lover and my goal is to work with Egyptian archaeological collections and human remains.
