I have enjoyed the natural world ever since I was a young. It all started in my backyard in Middletown, Pa in 1966. Since then I graduated from California University of Pennsylvania in 1986 with a Bachelor of Science in Environmental Conservation. I have worked for the Deptmartment of Environmental Resources, Bureau of State Parks as an Environmental Interpretative Technician in the late 1980's. Now, I work for an environmental laboratory since 1991.
