High schooler with a love for fishes and other creatures. No expert, but I try my best and read as many academic papers that I can get my hands on. If there's a paper that would help with one of my identifications or my own observations, please link it in a comment! Always learning and growing, so any resource is helpful and greatly appreciated. I'm quite captivated by endemic, threatened, or rarely seen species, even if I don't know much about them. Former intern with Trout Unlimited at Lake Sammamish State Park.
If you would like to use any of my photos for Wikipedia or other community-based educational resources, I've licensed them so that can be done.

For freshwater fishes of North America (north of México), I use the Peterson Field Guide to help with my identifications. Highly recommend this book!
