On this project, he led and taught University students while excavating a colonial British settlement and cemetery. In 2012, he began working as an archaeologist for consulting firms in Texas and conducted field research for various projects throughout Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Tennessee, Mississippi, Alabama and Louisiana.

Welcome to a new year. I think we have all been looking forward to a better and tranquil year and it sounds as if we have a ways to go. To quote David Bowie, “I don’t know where I’m going from here, but I promise it won’t be boring.”
We have an amazing and interesting list of speakers for the next several months and I know I am looking forward to listening/learning about subjects that are either near and dear to my heart or are just plain fascinating. Our speakers is one of the reasons why I really enjoy this organization, they reflect the composition of our members – we are not all air and waste practioners, we are biologists, geologists, Phase I ESA practioners, CWA experts, remediation experts, etc.
I cannot wait to enjoy the comradery of my fellow A&WMA members and hear the speakers in-person but it looks like we will need to wait a little longer. Please stay tuned on when we can meet in-person again, but in the meantime, please continue to enjoy our virtual sessions, you will not be disappointed.
