Students will learn about the evolution of Pigs

I was trained in paleontology at the University of Alberta under paleontologist Philip J. Currie. I have worked in the education Department at the Smithsonian Natural History museum since 2019 and am still an educator there. I have been on several digs with paleontologist Paul Sereno and have been mentored by Paleontologist Thomas Holtz. I have also helped co-write paleo writer, Mark Witton, specifically on the vocalization of Cretaceous mammals, the rise of lepidopterans and non-aggressive potential relationships between Tyrannosaurus and Triceratops.
