I first thank my professors at Pennsylvania State University where I received my undergraduate education. Dean Snow, Claire McHale-Milner, George Milner, and Heath Anderson introduced me to archaeology, and Alan Walker introduced me to human evolution and paleoanthropology. They encouraged me to continue in anthropology after graduating from Happy Valley. I was fortunate enough to do fieldwork in Koobi Fora, Kenya with professors Jack Harris and Carolyn Dillian, amongst others in 2008. Northern Kenya is a beautiful place and participating in fieldwork there was an amazing experience. Being there gave me research opportunities that I completed for my Master’s thesis at New Mexico State University. Carolyn deserves a special acknowledgement because she taught me about the interesting questions that can be asked with sourcing obsidian artifacts.
