Brief Biographical Sketch:
Though I started out interested in classics, and later linguistics, I was drawn to paleontology, a field I've been passionately interested in since I was old enough to speak. I'm excited for any opportunity to teach what I've learned to younger students, and I hope to inspire more students to join the growing field of paleontology.
