Profile

I joined Regent's Park College in September 2008 having previously held lectureships in several other colleges, including Corpus Christi, Christ Church, Magdalen, St. John's, and Worcester. I teach a wide variety of papers in ancient Greek history ranging in time from Homer to Alexander, and using archaeological as well as written evidence. I lecture regularly for the Classics Faculty, and often take classes for the Greek core options in Classical Archaeology and Ancient History.
