From there he went on to Northern Illinois University to pursue the discipline even further and make it his chosen profession. Along the way, Ed has had the opportunity to conduct fieldwork at a variety of different places around the world. Including Belize to work at a late classic Mayan site, and to Sicily to work at a Hellenistic site. Now he works at the very expansion Mammoth Cave National Park.
