Heritage and History

Hello! I have a master's degree in Anthropology and love teaching kids about the diversity of our world and how we can all learn and benefit from it. I worked in Collections at the Field Museum, the LaBrea Tar Pits, and was Curator of the Mitchell Museum of the American Indian.

I always say that people fear what they do not understand, and I aim to teach about other cultures, other ideas, and other groups of people with fairness and compassion.
