Hello! I am a curious, happy person - always open to learning new things, exploring new places and meeting new people. Science, nature and conservation are the focal points of my life, but I have SO many other interests too. I don't spend so much time online, am happier engaging in life, being outdoors or sitting with a book when I want to slow down. Travel is a passion of mine, even if it's just a short weekend trip out of town. I am drawn to warm coastal environments - soft sand, palm trees, blue water! Over the past few years I've begun exploring the Caribbean, that's very fun!
