I'm a writer and archaeologist who bridges the ancient world and modern storytelling. With a background in archaeology and anthropology from the University of Florida, I specialize in archaeological mystery novels and non-fiction works on Late Bronze Age Anatolia. As a practicing archaeologist, my fieldwork experience informs both my fiction and scholarly research, grounding me in the realities of how we reconstruct the past. My work emerges from a fascination with the stories that objects tell and the detective work of understanding how ancient people lived and created meaning in their worlds.
