Biography:

Originally from New England. Moved out here to go to college and live by the mountains. Love any outdoor activity, especially with my border collie mix Maxwell. I paint in my free time and like to discover new places I haven鈥檛 already been to in the Rockies as much
as possible. My goal after graduating is to pursue a Master鈥檚 Degree in environmental engineering, and have a career in aqueous geochemistry and engineering aimed to remediate acid mine drainage systems in the country and all over the world.
