About
I am an Egyptologist with a PhD from the Institute of Fine Arts at New York University, and I am the assistant director of the New York University epigraphic expedition to the Ramesses II temple at Abydos.
My primary research interests are: ancient Egyptian queenship, women in ancient Egypt, the history and archaeology of the Ramesside period, and the expression of cosmological ideas in ancient Egyptian art and architecture. I have conducted two seasons of field research in the Valley of the Queens, and I have written and published articles about Ramesside royal women's tombs, ancient Egyptian funerary beliefs, and Egyptian temple cosmology.
