| Profile: Dennis has worked on projects in the Northern Plains and Canadian Rockies, as well as in France. He's the site supervisor for Pech IV. His previous construction experience must be why he enjoys building scaffolding at the site so much, with new arrangements almost daily! While doing an archaeological project as an undergraduate, he lived with a Native American family on the Blood Indian Reservation in Alberta. Dennis once coasted his car for 25 km to the nearest service station when he ran out of gas (what luck). Nowadays he lives with his wife, Tracey, a corporate lawyer, and their two cats, Sir Richard Burton and Sidi Bombay, in Vancouver. | ||
