Biography:
Originally from Vienna, Austria I have been living and working in Ireland for some twelve years. During this time I graduated from UCD with a BA in Celtic Studies and after working for a time in homeless services, in the voluntary sector returned to UCD for an MA in Landscape Archaeology, followed by a PhD on early Irish prehistory, under the IRCHSS Government of Ireland Doctoral Scholarship Scheme, which I concluded in 2007. Since then I took up a one-year lectureship in Archaeology at UCD and am currently working as postdoctoral fellow at the John Hume Institute for Global Irish Studies. My research investigates the role of migration in the introduction of agriculture during the mesolithic-neolithic transition in Ireland. Due to a great personal interest in the pedagogical side of archaeology, I have recently completed a Graduate Diploma in University Teaching and Learning.
