About Me
- About Me: I'm a part time curatorial assistant in the UTK herbarium and a full time student (junior in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology). I'm presbyterian, though, so I don't believe in evolution. I love plants, dead or alive, and all things outdoors, including, but not limited to: hiking, camping, kayaking, and botanizing. I love botany, but my current interests are genetics and plant signaling. In my spare time I enjoy reading, writing, and working in dirt.
More About Me
- Interests: Botany, plant systematics, plants in general, genetics, biology (but no animals, insects, or marine biology, except on a cellular level, unless, in the case of marine biology, it involves swimming field trips), ethnobotany, pharmacology. Also, reading and writing, German, playing in the dirt, and growing things.
