| Bio: | I have a Master's from Harvard Divinity School where I focused on Religions, Magic, and Prophecy in the Ancient World. My main geographic focus is the Ancient Near East, where I looked at Early Christianity and Judaism, as well as Ugaritic, Philistine, Mesopotamian and Egyptian beliefs. Some papers I've written have been on the Knights Templar, The Origins of the Armenian Werewolf Legend, The Origins of the Golem Legend, Means of Diviniation in the Old Testament, and the Concept of the Afterlife in Ancient Judaism. I spent two years working as a Librarian in the New Orleans area, and I just finished my 2nd Masters in Library Science from Indiana University. I'm a total language nerd - I know about 5 (mostly dead).My idol is MacGyver. I LOVE to travel. And I have one (formerly) very large cat named Bridget. |
