How did you become involved in archaeology?
It's something I have always wanted to do, so eventually I got a degree in it.
What aspect of the job do you enjoy the most?
Being outdoors and the responsibility of recording the past for future generations.
What has been your most interesting find?
On this site I have found some interesting green glaze pottery. This generally comes from the medieval period so it is unusual for it to be found on this 19th century pottery site. Its not about the finds though, its about the experience.
What are your interests outside work?
Music (I play the guitar), travelling and keeping fighting fit.
