Nicole's Story
Life
I know everyone thought I had nutty career plans...but I did finally finish my PhD in Egyptology at the University of Chicago in 2006.
Since graduating from UC Berkeley in 1993 I have spent about half my time in Chicago and the other half in Egypt. My husband (an Egyptian physician) and I got married in 2000 and have made it more than seven years now without an itch! We spent five years living in Cairo together where I worked on several archaeological projects, including as editor of thebanmappingproject.com, which won many major awards, and as archivist for an excavation at the pyramids.

We have a home in Luxor, Egypt, where my husband is originally from and maybe someday we will move back there, but for the time being I only am there for visits and work-related trips.
I'd love to hear from some of you. You can contact me through my Web site.
