I am a master's student in archaeology at Ivane Javakhishvili Tbilisi State University. My research interests are typological and use-wear analysis of stone artefacts, Rock art. In 2023, I started experimental archaeology.

Having studied Sociology and Archaeology, I specialize in experimental, sensory, and public food-archaeology.

I am an archaeologist and social historian with interest in the lived experience of historical clothing and occupational costume. I am currently working on a grant-funded project studying uniform and clothing worn by 19th century railway workers.

I work as a skill-sharing instructor, artist, forage guide, forest-school leader and at the dolmen museum as a Stone Age living history ‘person’ with my daughter of 7 years old.

I've been doing this for several years now and I would love to expand my knowledge/network etc.

Helen has been an active educator and classroom teacher since the early 2000s, and has been delivering living history sessions and workshops to museums and primary schools since 2019.
