Education
- Ph.D. in Classics, Princeton University (2011)
- M.A. in Classics, Princeton University (2009)
- B.A. in History, The College of New Jersey (2004)
Her research interrogates the intersection of gender ideology and religious institutions in Republican Rome, particularly examining how priestly roles both shaped and reflected societal expectations of women. The monograph A Place at the Altar: Priestesses in Republican Rome constitutes her major scholarly contribution, analyzing epigraphic and literary evidence to demonstrate priestesses' active civic participation beyond domestic spheres.
Scientific Awards
- Volkswagen Foundation Visiting Research Fellow (2014-2015)
This fellowship directly supported her book-length study of female religious officials. No information regarding graduate student mentorship or external grant funding beyond the Volkswagen Foundation award appears in the source material. The absence of laboratory or collaborative research team descriptions suggests independent scholarly work within traditional humanities frameworks.
