About me

I have been interested in Roman art for quite a while, and my interest in coins comes from this. I am not a numismatist; my interest is primarily art-historical. I have worked in museums on their numismatic collections, but this website is more of an outlet for my ramblings. I hold a doctorate in a related discipline.
