Like many paleontologists, I have wanted to be one since as long as I can remember. I went to undergrad at Montana State University where I found my passion for taphonomy - both bench work and field work. I pursued that into my Masters at North Carolina State University where I studied beta-keratin preservation in extant archosaurs and attempted to extrapolate that data to the fossil record. I currently run the paleontology field expeditions for Colorado Northwestern Community College and love every minute of our crazy, hard and absolutely awesome field seasons.
