Research Scientist
My main research interest is in the ecological context of primate & hominin evolution. Identification & analyses of mammalian fauna from Plio-Pleistocene hominin localities provides the framework for studying evolution of hominins and primates. Current field research is focused on early hominin sites (Australopithecus afarensis and early Homo) in the Afar Region of Ethiopia and Neandertal and modern human cave localities in Spain and Morocco.
I teach courses at both the undergraduate and graduate level. Undergraduate courses include Stones, Bones and Human Evolution, Fossil Primates, and Ecology and Human Evolution. Graduate courses include Zooarchaeology and Paleoecology I, Primate Paleobiology, Proposal Writing, Primate Communities, and Ecology and Human Evolution.
