I took Herpetology in May 2013 as a Hanover College student and found a love of herps. I obtained my BA from Hanover College in 2014 and then attended grad school at Missouri State University. I taught Herpetology to MSU students and obtained my MS in 2016 while working with cottonmouths. I also return to Virginia every May as the Hanover College Herpetology class TA.
