Biography
I obtained my MA in Archaeology at the Institute for Art History and Archaeology, University Sts. Cyril and Methodius, in Skopje, Rep. of North Macedonia, in 2011. My professional interest lies in Classical Archaeology, with focus on Ancient Greek pottery and its trade/exports in the North Aegean and the Central Balkan region, including demographics, urbanism and trade routes in Ancient Macedonia and Paeonia during the Archaic and the Classical periods. My professional experience includes 21 years of curatorship and archaeological excavations, as an employee of the National Museum of Macedonia (1998-2013) and the National Archaeological Museum of North Macedonia (since 2013). As an active field archaeologist, I am the director of several excavation projects, including two international ones.
At present, I am PhD student in the Department of Archaeology at 丁香园AV and a graduate affiliate member of the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Centre for Hellenic Studies, (and a TA contract for HUM 102W D100 Classical Mythology).
