Take heart! My passion for classics started at a young age with the stories of Greek and Roman Mythology. Now that I'm older, my interests vary. I am particularly interested in the Ancient Persian Empire and hope to conduct future archeological work there. In the mean-time, I hope to try my hand at helping to publish a paper my spring break. I would be in London/Oxford University. More specically, I would be in King's College London while in London. The publisher is located in this city.

I have had previous instruction from Hugh Sackett (world famous archeologist -http://lefkandi.classics.ox.ac.uk/ andhttp://www.scribd.com/doc/44711336/J-Alexander-MacGillivray-and-L-Hugh-Sackett-%E2%80%98%E2%80%99Palaikastro%E2%80%99%E2%80%99-in-The-Bronze-Age-Aegean-ca-3000-1000BC-Eric-H-Cline-eds-Oxford-University-Pres )  I am qualified

I have recently turned seventeen and can expect to attend St. John's College Santa Fe the upcoming fall. I grew up in Chicago, Illinois and was blessed with the opportunity of winning the Daniel Murphy Scholarship, that provides education services to at risk inner city youth.  I was accepted to boarding school and the rest is history. At school, I have worked hard. Now, I'd like to take yet another risk for my education. I will need your help!! :)

Both my parents are unemployed. If I am able to take this opportuniy and do a good job, there is a great chance that I will be hired throughout college in the archeology field This is a dream of mind and would relieve pressure from my parents.

The money is for airfare and transportation from London to Oxford. If I am overfunded, I plan on using the extra money for a trip to France, where I will have the opportunity to meet the wonderful lady who plans on translating this archeological research into French!

Thank you for taking time to read this and for giving me an opportunity. Enjoy your day and God bless!

 

P.S. See my picture below? I am wearing Red Pants in front of the best replica of the Parthenon
