Apple's Story
Life
After MHS, went to UNH Durham for 3 years.
Last year college, transferred to Univ Alaska Fairbanks. I loved it!
After college, Peace Corps, El Salvador, Central America for 2years 3months. Worked as environmental educator and english teacher in schools and worked with local farmers as a soil and water consevation extentionist. After PC traveled all of Central America.
After PC, worked as wildlife technician or biologist in NV, AZ, NM.
Have had many other odd-end jobs in between field jobs to pay bills: horse barn mucker, waitress, B&B innkeeper and tree nursery sales, volunteer calf brander and flanker.

e his aunt and godmother, although working out west doesn't allow me to see him often.
Favorite "hobby" is the outdoors. I live in it, work in it and play in it. I have hiked everywhere from muddy dormant volcanic islands and active sulfur spewing volcanoes in Central America, to fourteeners in CO, to mosquito heaven in thigh high mud in Miskito Coast Honduras, to Glaciers in Alaska, to the worn down Appalachian Mtns in New England, to the Grand Canyon (on my own two feet, not on mule!) and there is so much more...
Goals?
1) Find a long-term with benefits job working outdoors as a biologist or as an environmental educator. What good does science and research do if the public doesn't know what is going on?
2)Spend more time with my nephew and family.
