Bianca C. Isaias is a Paralegal at the New York office of Charles A. Ross and Associates, LLC.
Bianca was raised in Honduras and returned to the United States to obtain her university education. She graduated from Barnard College, Columbia University with a B.A. in Anthropology and a concentration in Archaeology. She is a native Spanish speaker, as well as a skilled translator and interpreter. Bianca serves as the firm’s bi-lingual paralegal.
During her time at Barnard, she worked in various archeological excavation sites in the United States and Honduras. Bianca performed extensive research with an emphasis on colonial archaeology in post-conflict countries. Her first dig took place in a marsh in coastal Georgia. There the archaeology team uncovered early Native American shell rings and knife points which dated to the time period of the earliest settlers in the region. Later she worked as a supervisor in an excavation in the colonial-era capital of Honduras, Comayagua. There she worked with a team from the Honduran Institute of Anthropology and History to carry out a dig in the Episcopal Palace and Religious Icons Museum that had just been destroyed by a fire and was about to undergo renovations. She used this work as the foundation for her thesis, which explored the manipulation of urban spaces to control subject populations in colonial settings, particularly in Spanish Colonial Mesoamerica.
