Introduction to Viet Tran

Hi all,

I was born in Vietnam, far away from US. I’m now a junior, double majoring in Environmental Studies and Economics Management. I am a huge fan of soccer and DOTA (I don’t think any of you know what DOTA is, but there was an extremely big event in Seattle that ended a few days ago). I enjoyed the last 2 years in OWU, and will try to enjoy the next 2 years here. Support for all!!!

introduction

My name is Gissele Miller.

I’m a Fine arts Major, cultural geography and Spanish minor.

I’m taking this class to be more informed in the environmental news, so this is my initiative for being

more sustainable and more aware of environmental issues.

Allow myself to introduce myself

howdy… My name is Nick Striler, i am a senior at the great Ohio Wesleyan University. I have lived in the same house in St. Louis my whole life. I have been out of the country once but never traveled off  the north american continent. I am a Geography major, I spend my summers and winter break in Colorado.

some fun facts about Nick Striler

• I have never broken a bone
• I am the baby of the family
• I am allergic to shellfish

Introduction to Tiffany Green

 

My name is Tiffany. I plan to major in Environmental Studies and Zoology. I was born in Paraguay but moved to Miami when I was still a baby. Later when I was older I moved back and stayed for 6 years before coming here. I love hiking, swimming, running and riding horses. When I was six my mom asked me what pet I wanted for my birthday, and I asked for an iguana. I grew up with Sally (the iguana) for 13 years, but couldn’t bring her with me when I moved back to the states. I really miss her.

Introduction to Sarah Jilbert

My name is Sarah. I’m a double major in Environmental Studies and Economics Management. My hobbies include figure skating and dancing. I also enjoy being outside and exploring. I’m living in the Bigelow- Reed house this year, and I’m hoping to make the house the most environmentally friendly place to live on campus. Also my favorite color is blue.

Introduction to Ashley Taylor

My name is Ashley Taylor. I am a zo/enviro studies major and anthropology minor who is living in Treehouse. I have a dog, Bubbe, who lives with me and knows more people on this campus than I do. My favorite colors are sea foam green and sunshine yellow. Socks, mugs, and pillows are my downfall, but other than that I love to be outside hiking/exploring, sitting, reading, or taking pictures of moss, ferns, and fungi. Below is a picture of when I had a case of “When owners look like their pets.”

Intro to Erika Kazi

 

My name is Erika.  I love dogs, being outside, doing cartwheels, and pickles.  One of my favorite places in the world is Pharaoh Lake, but I have a lot and am still looking for more.  I won the science fair in 6th grade (awkward stage).  The picture below is from my physics class in high school — you don’t need a license to drive a sandwich.

Introduction to Alexx Bigham

My name is Alexx Bigham, I recently transferred to OWU from CSCC.  I’m majoring in zo and environmental studies.  I currently work in the Asia Quest region at the zoo, but have spent 9 years in various capacities working there.  So if it isn’t obvious I really want to be a zoo keeper. Otherwise, I like to be outside, hiking, caving (before WNS became an issue), or just being active.

This is a picture of the zoo’s newest, and proudest, additions – we just had our first litter of baby Amur tigers! 2 boys, in June.

My favorite colors are turquoise and red. I’m a happy, healthy vegetarian – I just really don’t like eggplant.  I’ve been to ~28 states. I want to through hike the Appalachian trail some day soon. My favorite birds are White-crested laughingthrushes, they’re one of the most fun birds I’ve ever interacted with and they’re incredibly smart. I watch a lot of “Through the Wormhole” but very little else on TV.

Introduction to Caity Buzza

Senior studying zoology. Looking into going into zoo keeping. Work at Toledo Zoo and volunteer at the Ohio Wildlife Center and Delaware County Humane Society. Like to be outdoors.

Introduction to Melissa Guziak

Hi, my name is Melissa. I’m a Junior from Burlington, VT majoring in Biology and Environmental Studies. I love anything to do with the outdoors and being active. I spent the summer working on a trail crew in Whikseytown, CA and loved it. We built a bridge, made a new trail, moved lots of logs, parched a water ditch, and killed blackberry and poison oak. On campus I’m involved in the Women’s Ultimate Frisbee team (the Yetis), Environment and Wildlife Club, Outdoor Ministry Team, and I live in The Tree House.

I love Ohio in the fall and I’m excited for the leaves to start changing colors.
