I am a cytotechnologist and a United States Army veteran. I hold a master’s degree in healthcare administration from Chapman University and a bachelor’s degree in biology from Drury University. My hobbies include scuba diving, sailing, jogging, kayaking, maintaining reef aquariums, aquaponics, poetry, and writing.
This is my soft coral 90 gallon reef tank.

This is my small aquaponic system using yellow lab cichlids to grow some basil and mini cherry tomatoes.
This is my large aquaponic system in progress. It will house some channel catfish and bluegills. I think I will grow some lettuce, spinach, and kale.


This is Rusty. He is a male normal Florida Kingsnake.
This is Melanie. She is a female hypomelanistic Florida Kingsnake.
