David is a current PhD student in Classical Archaeology. He received his B.A. in Classics from Brandeis University, his M.A. in Mediterranean Archaeology from the University College London (UCL) Institute of Archaeology, and also spent one year at the University of Pennsylvania’s Post-Baccalaureate Program in Classical Studies. David has partcipated in excavations of Iron Age through Medieval sites in the UK, Italy, and Greece, and has also spent time working on a number of cultural resource management (CRM) surveys and excavations across northeast and mid-Atlantic regions of the United States.

David’s recent research has focused on land transport technologies in the Roman period. He is interested in an eclectic approach to the evidence – incorporating the archaeological, textual, epigraphic, and artistic records – to better evaluate the roles that vehicles played throughout the many facets (military, politics, commerce) of society and daily life.
