Extension
I had the pleasure of serving as the Departmental Entomology Outreach Coordinator at the University of Florida.




Additionally, I was very active in my community.
Serving as: Vice President with my local beekeeping club, board advisor for Pinellas Farm Bureau, and board advisor for my Community Garden (including maintenance of honey bee colonies).
