Summary

Hardworking, skilled, and lighthearted Anthropologist bringing demonstrated success and experience from my accomplishments to date. From playing the drums professionally and touring with my band across California, beginning my undergraduate degree undecided and graduating with a degree in anthropology, to working in the field and learning the tools needed to practice archeology, or even spending a semester in a foreign country and learning what it means to be an Italian. My expertise is finding and learning from what truly interests me and using those experiences to become a stronger person with a larger understanding of the world.
