FIELDWORK + ENGAGEMENT
As a contributor and project leader for several major fieldwork projects, the three longest-standing initiatives are my work with the Unearthing Detroit project, the Survey and Landscape Archaeology on Montserrat (SLAM) project, and through Preservation Detroit.
Below these is a rotating gallery of past initiatives I've been involved with over the years.
