Bio
Kelli L. Keith, MPH
Sharon was a delightful student who brought insight, cooperation, and leadership to the dig site and classroom. Hardworking, with a willingness to ask for assistance when needed, made her a valuable asset during the field season. I would highly recommend her for any Level I archaeology position and would be overjoyed to collaborate on a future project.
