I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I'm an ecologist which suffers from AADD- animal attention deficit disorder. It's a rare form of nature nerdom that causes the diseased to lose focus whenever a furred, feathered, finned or even photosynthetic organism comes into view. I love nature and if you ever are interested in learning a thing or two about the environment, I am your girl.Right now, I am getting my master's degree at WVU and am researching the effects of invasive (non-native, problem causing) plants on ginseng. Did you the US spends over $122 billion/yr on invasive species?! Some of the more notorious invasives are gypsy moths and zebra mussels, but our forests are currently under a silent attack by invasive plants.I work a lot, but it's for issues that I am passionate about. I also love the great friends and family I have as well as my wonderful boyfriend, Jerry. I'ma lucky gal.You can feel free to message me on AIM at funkyk01 =) Don't be shy!
