Location Fountain, Colorado, USA
I am an archaeologist specializing in Japanese culture. My independent research is centered around the technological, cultural, and economical development Japan has experienced throughout history. Specifically, I am focusing on the Jōmon Period and Imperial to Post-colonial.
I have visited archaeological sites in the Americas. I have conducted fieldwork in New Mexico, Colorado, and Belize. My current independent research includes early development of cities in Japan and how the beginnings of Eastern religion changed and/or affected the infrastructure of them. Other interests include the early uses of pottery and the development of craft specialization in Japan. My passion lies with examining how Japan's relations with other countries have changed overtime.
