I am a graduate student in the University of Utah Anthropology Department studying with Alan Rogers, Henry Harpending, and Dennis O'Rourke.

My research interests include population genetics.  I am using mtDNA to investigate the timing of past population events using a variety of dating methods.

I am also interested in the evolution of brain size.
