As a child I spent my time reading a book called "World Treasures". In this book was The Shroud of Turin, The Crystal Skull, and the Rosetta Stone, I was also a very big fan of the book 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea. Add to the mix the film Indiana Jones and you had a very adventurous imaginative child. I was fascinated with adventures and story telling. When I went off to college I attended Indiana University and studied both theater and anthropology with an emphasis in archaeology. Since I graduated in 2011 I have been debating what career to pursue until I finally realized I do best when I do both. After all what is archaeology, is it not telling the stories of the past? My journey to going to graduate school and becoming an archaeologist is still unfolding. I am currently the secretary of the Archaeological Institute of America Chicago chapter, the office coordinator at the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago, and I am writing a dance/play about our cultural understanding of body hair. I've contributed articles to bust.com and am hoping to write more articles and make some online documentaries about archaeology. In my ideal world I would get a masters degree in documentary filmmaking and a PhD in archaeology.
As a story teller and an aspiring archaeologist I seek to learn from the past so we can continue to build a bright future.
