ABOUT ME

I'm a 26 year old graduate student studying biology in the Vancouver, BC area. I love going to shows and doing yoga. Punk rock, art and music have always been a big part of my life even though I'm a career-scientist.

PHILOSOPHY

Nature is my guide. I seek Forest Wisdom.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Taught students introduction biology and entomology. I love blowing peoples minds on a daily basis because incredible things are happening all around them at all times.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have an undergraduate degree in evolutionary biology and specialize in entomology. If you want to know about cool insects, how an insect breaths or digests, and what the heck is that bug that you always find on your window in the morning? I'm your gal. I teach introduction to entomology to third year biology students at Simon Fraser University and am especially keen on teaching people about sustainability and appreciating the work of some of our tiny, chitinous, 6-legged cousins.
