Bio: I was born in raised in Rochester, NY before leaving home to attend the University of Pittsburgh. While at Pitt I worked with Dr. Sam Donovan creating biology “problem spaces” for use in community colleges and high school courses. I am now a first year MST student at the University of Maine working with Dr Michelle Smith. In the future I hope to continue on to doctoral studies in evolutionary biology.
