I received both my B.S. in Conservation Biology & Ecology (2017) and my M.S. in Conservation Technology (2018) from Florida Tech. During my time at Florida Tech, I performed extractions of harmful algal toxins from marine mammal and fish tissue samples, as well as assisted in preparing and performing enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) testing on the extracts. Since graduation, I have been working as a scientific writer for a pharmaceutical contract research organization, volunteering at a local bird rehabilitation center, and finishing up my first peer-reviewed ecology research publication. I am currently considering switching back to an active ecological research position, as well as contemplating pursuing a Ph.D.
