I has always enjoyed spending time outdoors and learning all I can from nature. As a lifelong learner and outdoor enthusiast, I am passionate about teaching the science of nature to help others foster a deeper understanding and appreciation for our natural environment. I attained a B.S. in Environmental Studies and a B.S. in Mathematics from Shenandoah University. Continuing my education, I went on to complete a M.S. in Environmental Science and Policy with a concentration in Aquatic Ecology at George Mason University.
