I received my BSc from the University of Calgary in Archaeology with a minor in Anthropology, and my MA from Queens University in Classical Studies. My research interests lie in the study of art from the Greek world, with a particular interest in the iconography of Greek vase painting from the Archaic and Classical Period, ceramic trade networks, the mobility of artisans, ethnicity, and women in the Classical Greek world. My MA thesis “Domestic Depictions: Women of the Home in 5th-Century Attic Vase Painting” deals with women’s place within the home as depicted in art, how this may reflect the societal notions of the people producing these vases, and the ways in which themes change throughout Athenian history. In my PhD I plan to continue and expand my research of women through Greek art, shifting my focus to the depiction of Thracian nurses within Athens, and how this expresses Athenian perceptions of autochthony, ethnicity, and barbarism.
