Hi Everyone. I'm a professional anthropologist with an interest in cemeteries and death and dying rituals, among other research interests. I was born and raised in southern NJ, attended college and graduate school in Texas. I'm also just now getting into family research (Imperiale, Orlando, Galasso, and Metz) and genealogy. I enjoy visiting old cemeteries, collecting oral histories and honestly, do a little ghost hunting every now and again.
