About Me

Originally from Chicago, but I have spent lots of time traveling and living in various spots. I received my bachelors in Biology from the University of Kansas in 2003. Lawrence, Ks is a great place, and will always feel like home to me. I moved to NOLA in 2003, and graduated in 2006 from UNO (a year late, thanks Katrina) with my Masters in Geology. During my time here in LA, I have acquired a son. My son, Jaeden, is my heart and soul, and is the most wonderful thing to ever happen to me! Kids are truly amazing, I can only be so lucky to have another one some day. Currently I am teaching Geology at Delgado Comm. Coll. It is a pretty good gig, I can't complain too much! I am also working on about 11 publications in the realm of vertebrate paleontology.

I wish I could say that I read a lot, (and I used to!) but between teaching 9 classes, and playing with my son, the only books I get to read these days are Dr. Suess books! But my favorite series of books are the Children of the Earth series.

Jaeden is super cool

This morning on the way to work, Jaeden had a super awesome request in the car. Apparently, he has been listening to my music choices very seriously - and I really couldn't believe what I was hearing...

People can be real jerks

There are somethings I guess I just won't understand about people, and I know I am naive about people. I like to think people are generally good. Well, I found out about that! My car got broken into...

I love this song

This is a totally amazing song, with a profound statement. I can't say much else, the song speaks for itself. John Mayer Waiting On The World To Changeme and all my friends we're all misunderstood th...

The good old days....

I am here in the Geology building, and it seems so deserted. Sniff, sniff. Things just aren't the same anymore. I miss everyone's smiling faces! It just isn't the same without the masses in front o...

Students can be crazy

OK, so I have been teaching for 3 years now as a TA, which was nice because responsibility still fell back onto the proff. in charge. Well, now I am a "big, bad instructor" and the students can be a ...
