Biography
Biography
Hello! Just a little about me.... I was born at Travis AFB here in California, so I suppose you can technically consider me a native. My father was in the Air Force and was transferred to Texas when I was 2 years old, and there I stayed until late 2012 when a need of a change of scenery brought me back to California. I grew up in San Antonio, but have also lived in Galveston, Texas City, Universal City, and Corpus Christi. I received both my BS (2005) and MS (2008) in Biology with an emphasis on Marine Ecology from Texas A&M University - Corpus Christi. I have been teaching college Biology since 2009, and think it is the best and most fun job I can imagine! I love science, and nature, and critters of all kinds. I love living in the Bay Area, especially since there is such great access to all things outdoors! My husband and I live in a small East Bay community that is peaceful with lots of green spaces around to explore. I keep fish, tarantulas and other arachnids and creepy-crawlies for pets and I garden, hike, take nature photos and paint to relax.
