The Kelsey Museum is pleased to welcome Dr. Chris Motz as its new digital assets manager. 

Chris is a Roman archaeologist and a specialist in digital technologies and methods. He brings 13 years of experience guiding collaborative efforts to record, analyze, publish, and archive archaeological data. Chris is currently involved with fieldwork and publication projects at the coastal Punic/Roman city of Tharros, Sardinia, and at Pompeii’s Porta Stabia neighborhood. He has previously conducted fieldwork in Italy, Portugal, Spain, Morocco, France, Greece, Turkey, and Belize. Chris looks forward to working with the Kelsey’s impressive collections and collaborating with the university’s archaeological community. As a childhood Michigan fan, he is excited to once again get decked out in maize and blue.

He will begin his position in August. Welcome, Chris!
