Description
I received multidisciplinary training first in biblical studies and religious studies and theology with an ancient Mediterranean emphasis, and later in Second Temple/Hellenistic Judaism, early Christianity, and Classics. My focus blends disciplinary bounds and remains firmly philological while employing fundamental historical and theoretical methodologies.
