My Bio

Hey Y'all!  My name is Amy McCoy and I moved to Arizona in November 2005 from Jackson, Mississippi shortly after Hurricane Katrina.  I was raised in Philadelphia, MS and I attended Millsaps College in Jackson for four years. I decided to get my last two credit hours at ASU.  My major is Sociology and Anthropology with a minor in Faith and Work.  My focus in anthropology was primarily archaeology.  I went to Yucatan, Mexico for two summers and did Mayan Archaeology at a small site called Kaxil Kiuic.  Last summer I had a job in St. Thomas (USVI) working on a Taino Indian project.  I have also worked on archaeological projects in Mississippi, Louisiana and Virginia.  I love to travel and have been to England, Wales, France, Spain, Germany, Italy, Austria, and Switzerland. I chose to major in anthropology because I love new places, people, and ideas.
