Kris at White House Ruins overlook, Canyon de Chelly, Arizona (

CURRENTLY:  I live in downtown Albuquerque, New Mexico, in a house that was constructed in 1906.  I've earned a living as a contract archaeologist for the past 13 years, and am currently busy creating maps, technical illustrations, and other computer graphics for various archaeological firms. I also sell original archaeological artwork and a number of other "fun" items including a self-published coloring book detailing the daily activities associated with archaeology. My products and I have been encountered at various conferences, trade shows, museum gift shops around the country..

BEST MEMORY:  I forget! Actually, my fondest memory of all my days spent in the Toulon school system has to be the hours spent in the WKFX studio our senior year... especially the time we watched Terry Hand hamming it up for the camera that we had set up in the window overlooking the stairwell near the industrial arts room. We laughed, we cried, we drank too much soda!
