Principal Analyst
	Ellery Frahm Research Fellow/Lab Manager M.S., University of Minnesota, 2002 Doctoral Candidate, University of Minnesota I have a range of duties: training and providing assistance to new and visiting users, performing routine maintenance, teaching a course on electron microprobe theory and practice, providing analytical support for industrial clients, and consulting and collaborating with faculty, staff, and students. My research interests lie in chemical analyses of archaeological material. The electron microprobe is infrequently used in archaeology in comparison to geology, despite the same types of materials in both fields. Please visit my website to learn more.
