I worked at a few other kinds of jobs before deciding biology
is the career for me. At the University of Texas I completed a B.S. in Biology,
with a specialty in Ecology, Evolution, and Conservation. Below are several
pictures taken while I was completing my degree work.
Here I'm wading out into a pond to scoop up macrobenthic organisms.
Macrobenthic organisms are big enough that you can see them without a microscope,
and they live on the bottom of ponds, lakes, etc. The pond looks a lot prettier
in this picture than it did in person.
Going thru the gunk scooped up to find the macrobenthic
organisms...
