Biography

I currently am an archaeobotanist at Museum of London Archaeology (2022 - present).   Previously, I have worked as the English Heritage (now Historic England) Research Fellow in Archaeobotany at the Department of Archaeology, University of Southampton and the Historic England Laboratory at Fort Cumberland (2000 - 2002) and also as a Project Officer/ Archaeobotanist at Oxford Archaeology (2006 - 2010).  At various points (1998 - 2000/ 2003 - 2006/ 2010 - 2022) I have worked as a free-lance archaeobotanist with University of Birmingham Environmental Archaeology Services.  I continue to work with colleagues at the University of Birmingham, assisting with archaeobotanical data on various projects.
