• Archaeological Field Technician

  • Jun 2021 - Jul 2021

  I worked as a Field Technician on the Bois D'Arc Lake Reservoir Project for about six weeks. For the first four weeks, I processed flotation samples in the lab. This process involved mixing soil samples with water and small amounts of baking soda before separating the light fraction from the heavy fraction with careful pours. After this, I removed any artifacts from the heavy fraction. During this time, I also completed minor clerical and cataloging work in the lab. For the last two weeks, I excavated features in a midden scrape area at 41FN114, This involved defining and mapping the top of a feature, bisecting it while drawing a detailed plan map of its contents, and ultimately determining its bottom depth before drawing a profile map of the bisection. This work also included photography and copious note-taking throughout. Show less

  • Jun 2017 - Jul 2018

  At The Escape Game Austin, I worked closely with guests, guiding them through one of our five unique puzzle games. My job consisted of orienting new players to the game, making sure that they understand the rules and how to call for clues, then watching each team play the game, providing hints and clues when necessary. I also kept detailed notes of every game. After each game, I systematically reset the room, which carries with it a high degree of accountability, as one mistake can ruin a team's experience with the game. Show less

  At The Whim, I contributed five news stories a week, covering current events. The Whim uses a simple article format that is fact-based, and relatively unbiased.

  I primarily delivered pizzas and completed a variety of other supporting tasks for the store. In addition, I became somewhat of an unofficial supervisor and leader amongst my coworkers. In the last two years, the company acquired a company car for the purpose of making deliveries, and I was one of two people whom the owner trusted to drive it and represent the company on a full-time basis.
