About
Originally from Massachusetts, Caroline graduated with a BA in Literae Humaniores from Oxford (2022)and joined the University of Michigan in the same year as a PhD student in Classical Studies (Languages and Literature). She researches archaic Greek oral poetry and is a certificate student in Women's and Gender Studies.
While she primarily works with literature, Caroline has also excavated at three archaeological sites: the Roman city of Pollentia in Mallorca, the Hellenistic Greek city of Halaesa in Sicily, and the Etruscan city of Tarquinia in Lazio, Italy. Outside the classroom, she interned with Lupercal (a non-profit organization dedicated to bridging the gender gap in Latin studies) and volunteered with the Public Engagement Department at the Ashmolean Museum of Art and Archaeology for two years.
In her free time, she competes for the university's fencing team and enjoys singing, playing the guitar, and running.
