I am a lover of science and nature who was raised in the Hudson Valley of New York and now currently reside on Long Island. I am and always have been fascinated with all aspects of the natural world. Everything from astronomy to paleontology (esp. biology) is of interest to me. I have a BS in Biology and MS in Anatomy & Neuroscience and have spent many years doing research in molecular and cellular biology and wish to continue to making contributions through citizen science.
