I am now getting back to my
true love--history. My bachelor's
focused mainly on Mesoamerica and the Spanish
Borderlands with a special spotlight on the relationship
between the Comanche, Apache and the Spanish starting
with the attack on the Mission at San Saba. Since then
my interests have changed to the world of Pericles and
Augustus. I plan on focusing my studies on Classical
Greece between 490-336 BC. I am fascinated by that most
peculiar city-state of Sparta and how it interacted with
Athens, specifically in the way of gender roles and how
women were viewed in each respective society.
