I am an anthropological archaeologist with broad interests in hunter-gatherers, lithic technology, human evolution, and complex systems theory. I am particularly interested in understanding processes of long term social, evolutionary, and adaptational change among hunter-gatherers, specifically by using approaches that combine archaeological data, ethnographic data, and computational modeling.

Evolution of social behavior and complex systems

My research interests include statistical mechanics, chaos theory and complex systems. I am also interested in simulations of social and economical systems.
