| Eric | Stavney | Freelancer, Adobe Systems | estavney@gmail.com | Instructional designer/trainer | I am a biologist by training (especially microbiology) but have wide ranging interests across nearly all scientific disciplines. I'm sorry to say this includes unbridled rock collecting (now no room to sleep at home) and taking roadkill home to stuff and make pretty again (now no squeamish friends). I tell a pretty good story, especially explaining nature and its wonders. |
