During the past 25 years I have held various positions in natural resource management, science education, and multimedia production. As a forest ranger I participated in numerous activities ranging from field research to environmental education. Most recently I have worked as an academic fellow and media coordinator at the Wright Center where I participate in the development a wide range of educational projects from astronomy to environmental science to climate change. I took my A.A. degree in Forestry with an emphasis in photography, my B.A. was earned in Environmental Studies with a concentration in photography, and my M.A. focused on instructional technology and long/short term memory. My current science education credential includes certifications to teach the following subject areas: biology, physical science, earth science, general science, forestry, horticulture, photography, and mathematics. I live in the Bitterroot Valley of western Montana with my wife, Jennifer, and two children, Elizabeth and Benjamin. I will be deployed to Antarctica during the 2008-09 field season of the International Polar Year. I can't wait get into the field and create interesting and engaging educational materials (blog, podcasts, photos, video, etc.) related to the WAIS Divide ice coring project, so stay tuned!
