• Professor of Art History, Archaeology and Space Studies, Chapman University

I research and teach space archaeology and Mediterranean art and archaeology and I am listed in the Register of Professional Archaeologists. I have worked on excavations in the United States, Spain, Jordan, and Italy since 1998. In 2014, I began a new collaborative project on the Iberian indigenous settlement of Cástulo, Spain. I have also worked to develop the emerging field of space archaeology. Together with my co-PI, Dr. Alice Gorman (Flinders University), I lead the first large-scale archaeological investigation of a human habitation site in space: the International Space Station. Our work has won awards from the Archaeological Institute of America and the American Anthropological Association.

My other work includes problems related to cultural heritage management and the use of digital technology in art history and archaeology.
