I was born and raised in Nebraska, so Nebraska will always be home to me. During my grad school years I lived in Michigan and Indiana and now I'm living in Illinois (not too terribly far away from St. Louis). My job is why I moved to Illinois. I'm an archaeologist, so I work in the lab, in the field, and I do some teaching as well. I'm a hard rocker at heart and if you know me you know I'm passionate about music and I LOVE going to concerts! I'm also an avid traveler and have been overseas many times :) I would describe myself as laid back and easy to get along with. I could sit down with anyone and carry out a conversation with them. I'm a go getter, meaning I know what I want and I go after it.
