About Me

I'm a Partner PhD student at the CUNY Graduate Center, The American Museum of Natural History, and NYCEP. I am a paleoanthropologist co-advised by Dr. Ashley Hammond and Dr. Chris Robinson and a former adjunct lecturer at Brooklyn College. My research interests include hominin teeth evolution and geometric morphometrics. I have experience in scientific illustration, statistical analysis, fieldwork, and teaching K-12.
