I am a graduate of the College of St Monica currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Archaeology and Ancient History. I completed my undergraduate thesis on the chronology and radiocarbon dating of domestic religious material in Roman Egypt in 2024 (which won the Rosemary Cromby Prize for Egyptology!!!! yipee).


I have formally studied Ancient Greek, Italian, Japanese, Latin, Middle Egyptian, and in the vaguest sense of the word, scholarly French. If you want a translation of anything in Ancient Greek, or a name consult which requires knowledge of these languages, please feel free to reach out!

My fields of study and interest include archaeology, history, art, and languages. I also have a certificate in make-up and skincare, and research historical cosmetics.

SCA Interests
