I am an Professor at the University of Missouri, Columbia, who studies Late Pleistocene human evolution, human growth and development, bone functional adaptation, and human adaptation to climate.  I'm deeply committed to creating fun and educational experiences for my students, so if taking an upper-level course with me is an option for you, please do.  I can occasionally be found around Columbia moonlighting as an athletics instructor for master's athletes, enjoying a fine glass of wine or two, and knitting truly excellent hats.
