Nick Trudeau

Nick Trudeau is a PhD candidate in the University of Michigan Museum of Anthropological Archaeology. His research focuses on social change and the exchange of culture between Indigenous populations and Europeans in the Great Lakes Region during the 14th-17th centuries. He has also used his work to teach communities about their connections to and responsibilities toward Indigenous archaeological sites as a means to repair relationships between descendant Native American communities and the people living on their ancestral homelands. As a collections assistant for the ReConnect/ReCollect project he is excited to help build and repair relationships between the University of Michigan and the Filipino community.
