Hi, I'm Jake. I'm in my 4th year of an Environmental Studies major and Geography minor at the University of Colorado Boulder. After spending 6 years in the Navy, I came back to school to pursue my intrests in sustainability, geography, and affordable housing. I've spent a summer as an outdoor sports instructor, where I got the opportunity to dip my toes into Environmental Education teaching about Leave No Trace and survival skills. I'm hoping to get to know more about the field of EE, and to hopefully make some connections!

The contemporary design of Doodle Baseball is what makes it enjoyable. The game's art style is a delightful doodle, full of bright colors and entertaining motions; it's adorable and captivating. The baseball field is also quite enjoyable to play on because of its thoughtful design and user-friendliness.
