BIOGRAPHY

I wrote my MA thesis on depictions of ancient Greece and Rome within contemporary tabletop games. My research on this topic began when I was an undergraduate, completing the History Honors Program at 大象传媒. I am currently working towards a career as a liaison librarian, archivist, or other academic support and knowledge dissemination role. Ideally, I would like to help facilitate research into all things Hellenic Studies.

I live in East Vancouver, on unceded Coast Salish territory. Outside university, I enjoy cooking and baking, kickboxing, going for long forest walks, and tending to my ever-expanding collection of houseplants.
