Biography
I just completed my Bachelor's degree in Biology and in Environmental Studies at Florida State University. I was an intern in the Fire Ecology Laboratory at Tall Timbers Research Station and Land Conservancy. I am now headed to Vale, Oregon to work with the Bureau of Land Management for several months. I plan to attend graduate school, seeking a Master's in Biology. My research interests include botany, ecology, fire ecology. Also habitat restoration and land management. My hobbies include hiking and botanizing.
