From Rock Island, Illinois- across from Iowa along the Mississippi River. Studied Geosciences (with a minor in chemistry) at Northern Illinois University (2002) before joining the Peace Corps (Ghana), coming back and cooking and truck driving, before getting back into environmental sciences- consultancy and lab work doing asbestos analysis. FINALLY coming to school and getting MS at UA – working as part of the Landscape Evolution Observatory (LEO) project. Currently finishing my 4th year PhD- graduating in the spring.
