I’m an archaeologist specializing in Mediterranean archaeology. I hold a master’s degree in Classical Art & Archaeology from King’s College London.

I have worked on excavation campaigns in Europe, the Middle East, and South America. I excavated in some of the most remote, unforgiving environments on Earth. From the searing heat of deserts and dense rainforest canopies to deep cave systems and rugged coastlines, I go where history lies buried. One of my most challenging assignments was serving as the lead archaeologist for an on-camera expedition that cut through the brutal terrains of the Andes and deep into the heart of the Amazon.

Beyond the field, I spent five years in London, where I contributed to two research projects at The British Museum, working on post-excavation material from the Amara West Project and reconstructing historical excavations at Kamiros. Furthermore, I contributed to the Natural History Museum's conservation work by preserving original botanical specimens collected during Captain Cook's second voyage and Charles Darwin's historic expedition aboard the HMS Beagle.

As a history writer and columnist for the English edition of Haaretz, I go beyond standard textbook narratives to explore the overlooked corners of antiquity. Using the ancient world as a lens, I examine contemporary social, cultural, and political issues—from mental health and identity to war, politics, and sexuality—tracing the enduring influence of ancient ideas on modern society. My articles appear both in the print and digital editions of Haaretz, which is distributed alongside the international edition of The New York Times.
