BIO

I'm interested in understanding the evolution of human culture and lead the Cultural Dynamics Lab.

 

I grew up in Whanganui and joined the University of Canterbury in 2024. Prior to joining UC I held positions at the University of Otago, the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Human History, and the University of Oxford.

 

More information about me can be found on my personal website.

I am located in room 711 of the Ann Ballin building. Please get in touch if you would like to set up a meeting.
