Recipient of this year’s Dever Fellowship, which is awarded through the American Schools of Oriental Research (ASOR). The fellowship will fund two months of research in Israel this summer; one month working with the archaeological excavation team at Omrit (north of the Sea of Galilee) and one month researching at the Albright Institute in Jerusalem. The Dever Fellowship is a nationally competitive fellowship that is awarded to one scholar each year whose research and teaching would benefit from intensive work with archaeological methods and materials.
