Skills & Interests

  • Arts / Photography (Intermediate)
    I am an intermediate-level photographer. Good eye, no formal training, and two cameras (one SLR, one digital point-and-shoot). Am constantly attempting to improve technical skills, such as lighting, composition and the "digital dark room" (Photoshop).
  • Science and Technology / Geoscience (Beginner)
    I am increasingly interested in the origins of the earth, and have begun assisting a teacher in the instruction of a university-level Earth and Space Science class. The class website can be found at http://geology316.wordpress.com
